Audiences continued to flock to \u201cYou Can See Everything<\/a>,\u201d as the twisty documentary about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes captured the zeitgeist and saw its grosses increase in its second weekend. The A24<\/a> film<\/a> earned $19.5 million over its sophomore frame, a 25% improvement from its $15.6 million opening. Few movies see their grosses rise like that. <\/p>\n

However, the film expanded its theater count, which helped lift ticket sales. \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d is playing in 2,655 theaters, up from the 855 it debuted on the previous weekend. Its popularity is remarkable considering that \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d is a three-hour documentary that is playing like a broadly commercial feature. It helped that A24 cloaked the film in secrecy<\/a>, convincing audiences that the only way to avoid spoilers was to buy a ticket.<\/p>\n

Produced for a mere $7 million, \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d has grossed $45.1 million, positioning it to be one of the most successful non-fiction films in history. Michael Moore\u2019s \u201cFahrenheit 9\/11,\u201d an anti-Bush treatise released in the midst of the contentious 2004 presidential election, remains the highest-grossing documentary with just over $222 million in receipts. \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d has easily topped \u201cMelania,\u201d which had been the year\u2019s highest-grossing doc with its $16.3 million gross. That look at the gilded life of America\u2019s First Lady was a lot less profitable given that Jeff Bezos and Amazon MGM Studios shelled out $40 million<\/a> for the rights (they love non-fiction filmmaking!).<\/p>\n

Will the box office<\/a> success propel \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d and its directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim into the Oscar race? The jury is still out on that, though awards prognosticators have written many<\/a>, many<\/a>, many<\/a> words on the subject. <\/p>\n

Even if the documentary branch shuts Fielder and Oppenheim out or \u201cYou Can See Everything\u201d fails to be the first documentary to land a Best Picture nomination, it will go down as a massive hit for A24, extending a sizzling streak at the box office. This year, the studio released \u201cBackrooms,\u201d the biggest blockbuster in its history with a $400 million global haul, as well as winners like \u201cPrimetime\u201d and \u201cThe Drama.\u201d And it did so by proving that audiences will turn up in theaters for more than just superhero flicks and sequels. Turns out, they\u2019re interested in Silicon Valley flameouts too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Audiences continued to flock to \u201cYou Can See Everything,\u201d as the twisty documentary about Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":946047,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[24826,6471,49,48,75,1554,307750],"class_list":["post-946046","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-a24","tag-box-office","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-film","tag-you-can-see-everything"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/946046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=946046"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/946046\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/946047"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=946046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=946046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=946046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
