Think the demand for payment actually worked in the filmmakers' favor. Fielder turns the situation into an “I’m not locked in here with you. You’re locked in here with me” deal. Exploits Billy's complete misunderstanding of leverage to get exactly where he wants to go.
Corey Atad@CoreyAtadOct 26
the thing about the "should Evans and Holmes have gotten paid?" issue is that, in fact, the studio and filmmakers agreed to pay them! real question is, why were they so uncomfortable with that arrangement (i think the answer is in the scene where Billy shuts down an interview)

Recognizing that a new film probes similar questions to older films is also not a sufficient critique. These questions are eternal, and there's plenty to explore in YCSE. These coworkers should talk! newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…
Vinson Cunningham@vcunninghamOct 26
why do people think this is hard to understand? it's not sufficient as a defense for a film to point out its obvious theme. which dimension of this very old and often explored question did the actual filmmaking, choice of subject, etc, help illuminate or deepen for you?

This question has long been settled and the movie correctly doesn’t take much interest in it. There’s no honest reading of this movie or it’s marketing or any interviews that could lead you to believe it was about that.

That first sentence... Fielder promised no such thing.

the search and rescue industrial complex is about to be revolutionized

Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks. By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time. Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

when people complain that YCSE didn't sufficiently explore Elizabeth Holmes' guilt and allowed some audience members to believe she's innocent

Guess it depends to what degree you view YCSE as an act of journalism. But that feels like the least rewarding way of engaging with it. Which may be why it’s such a hit with cinephiles and seems to bounce off people who want a more literal examination of Holmes
Reggie Ugwu@uugwuuOct 25
After a second viewing, I enjoyed it as a kind of drag performance of investigative journalism. Oppenheim and Fielder don’t actually want to reveal who Holmes is. (They go out of their way to obscure her.) They want a winsome tag team on a rollicking snipe hunt

There's certainly a tendency among modern audiences to misread comedy, especially in older movies (the Music Box apologized for laughter during Blue Velvet a while back). That's not what's going on in You Can See Everything. Nonstop laughter totally justified.

Nathan: Do you understand why this is scary? Elizabeth: The girl is sick? Nathan: Sorta. The girl’s head is on backwards and she says the priest’s dead mother will perform fellatio for all eternity. Billy: [listening to Mein Kampf at 3x speed]: The 19th Amendment was a mistake

I actually think Netflix is suffering right now for the opposite reason. From the newsletter yesterday:

This is true, and only made worse by Substack-style models that are driven by subscriptions to personalities rather than publications. And that’s the intent, the parasocial element is a feature, not a bug
FOSTER@weareyourfekOct 21
The craziest thing about everything going on at The Ringer is the absoltuely insane parasocial relationship people continue to have with podcasters, some of you people are fucking nuts, man
