A Documentary Making Waves at the Box Office

The A24 documentary titled You Can See Everything is creating a notable stir at the North American box office, leading theaters to quickly broaden its release. After a robust start in under 1,000 venues, the film is set for a wider launch this weekend, with estimates suggesting it will expand to at least 2,600 locations as enthusiasm continues to grow.

This documentary delves into the life of Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos, through a three-year lens crafted by directors Fielder and Lance Oppenheim. Since its premiere on October 16, it has consistently ranked in the top two in North America. Its commercial success has been further enhanced by impressive mid-week earnings, including a remarkable $2.6 million on its first discounted Tuesday, marking the second-highest Tuesday revenue for a documentary, just behind Fahrenheit 911.

Box Office Achievements and Future Outlook

In just five days since its release, the film has garnered $20.8 million at the domestic box office, surpassing the total lifetime earnings of the nature documentary Oceans, which concluded its run with $19.4 million. Analysts in the industry believe that if this upward trend continues, the documentary is on track to enter the all-time top 10 highest-grossing documentaries in North America.

In addition to its box office success, the film is being touted as a strong contender for the upcoming awards season, with expectations for several Oscar nominations. It captures the last 34 days before Holmes reported to prison, transforming from a personal narrative into a significant cultural discussion point. As the number of theaters showing the film increases, the industry is keenly observing whether it can maintain its momentum and secure a spot among the most successful non-fiction films in U.S. history.
