LOS ANGELES, Nov 2 — You Can See Everything, the documentary about jailed biotech fraudster Elizabeth Holmes that is generating major Oscars buzz, prevailed in a slow weekend at the Halloween box office in North America, industry estimates showed Sunday.

The three-hour A24 documentary, co-directed by comedian Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, earned US$10.6 million in the United States and Canada, Exhibitor Relations said.

The film follows the Theranos founder and her family for a month before she began an 11-year prison sentence in 2023 for fraud and conspiracy, after making lofty promises about innovations in medical testing, on which she failed to deliver.

The scandal fuelled a media circus and was chronicled in a book, multiple podcasts, and the biographical mini-series The Dropout, starring Amanda Seyfried – who has sparked some awards chatter with her surprise cameo in You Can See Everything.
