The movie “You Can See Everything” is gaining significant attention, sparking discussions about its potential for Oscars recognition. A24, the film distributor, has initiated an awards campaign that has caught the industry’s interest.
The storyline, revolving around Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of Theranos, who faced legal troubles after her claims about revolutionary blood-testing technology turned out to be fraudulent, sets the stage for a unique and captivating viewing experience, according to those who have watched the film.
The push for nominations includes a bid for best documentary, a category where Canadian films have historically excelled. Surprisingly, A24 is also pushing for “You Can See Everything” to be considered for best picture, a rare feat for a documentary.
The film is also vying for recognition in various categories such as best director, cinematography, film editing, original score, sound, and production design. Notably, the suggestion for best costume design and makeup and hairstyling nominations for a documentary has raised eyebrows among those unfamiliar with the film.
Additionally, there is an unlisted campaign for Amanda Seyfried to be nominated as best supporting actress for her portrayal of Elizabeth Holmes in the film. Seyfried, known for her role in “The Dropout,” reprises her character in “You Can See Everything,” adding a meta touch to the awards buzz.
The acclaim and boundary-pushing nature of “You Can See Everything” have captivated audiences and critics alike, setting high expectations for the upcoming Oscar nominations announcement on Jan. 21.
