“You Can See Everything”创下近20年有史以来最大的纪录片首映票房。
“You Can See Everything” just saw the biggest box office opening for a documentary in more than 20 years.
纳森·菲尔德和兰斯·奥本海姆的这部颠覆性题材影片，聚焦于陷入丑闻的Theranos创始人伊丽莎白·霍尔姆斯，票房突破1500万美元。
Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s genre-bending film about disgraced Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes made more than $15 million in ticket sales.
在纽约、洛杉矶等城市，尽管片长达三小时，许多周末场次仍全部售罄。
Many weekend screenings in cities like New York and Los Angeles were sold out despite the three-hour running time.
A24公司称，这是本世纪少数几部大型限量发行影片之一。“You Can See Everything”仅在不足900块屏幕上映，紧随上个月特鲁代尔电影节惊人首映之后。
The film’s distributor, A24, called it “one of the largest limited-release openings of the 21st century.”“You Can See Everything” opened on fewer than 900 screens following a jaw-dropping surprise premiere at the Telluride Film Festival last month.
菲尔德与奥本海姆在霍尔姆斯和伴侣比尔·埃文斯即将入狱的2023年前，秘密持续数年制作，亲自拍摄了相关过程。霍尔姆斯虽因电信诈骗和阴谋诈骗Theranos投资者被定罪，但仍试图向制片人证明自己的清白。
Fielder and Oppenheim worked on the project in secret for years, filming with Holmes and her partner Billy Evans in the weeks before Holmes went to prison in 2023. Holmes was convicted of wire fraud and conspiracy to defraud Theranos investors, but she tried to convince the filmmakers of her innocence.
菲尔德在镜头前采访霍尔姆斯和埃文斯，使影片走向意想不到的方向，令影评人和观众大为惊喜。影片在烂番茄上获得99%的“新鲜度”，在Letterboxd上创下4.8分的最高记录。
Fielder, who appears on camera interviewing Holmes and Evans, takes the film in unexpected directions, thrilling critics and theatergoers. The film has an extraordinarily high 99% “fresh score” on Rotten Tomatoes and a record-high 4.8 rating on Letterboxd.
CNN的大卫·麦克在首映日的评论文章中写道：“这部影片‘重写了我们所熟知的纪录片规则’，‘完全配得上其炒作的高度’。”
The film “has rewritten the rules of documentaries as we know them,” CNN’s David Mack wrote in an opening-day article about why it “absolutely lives up to the hype.”
观众显然渴望亲自验证。该片在不足1000块屏幕的情况下，创下了自2006年《布拉特》以来最大的首映纪录，也是自2004年《华盛顿阴谋》（Fahrenheit 9/11）以来最大的非音乐纪录片。
Theatergoers clearly wanted to find out for themselves. “You Can See Everything” enjoyed the biggest opening for a film on fewer than 1,000 screens since “Borat” in 2006. It was the biggest non-music documentary since “Fahrenheit 9/11” in 2004.
今年另一部大型纪录片——亚马逊 MGM 的《梅拉尼娅》——在首映周末上映屏幕数是其两倍，票房却仅为其四分之一，即710万美元。尽管在纪录片领域被视为成功之作，但其票房表现仍逊于《You Can See Everything》。
The other big documentary this year — Amazon MGM’s “Melania” film about the first lady — premiered on twice as many screens and made less than half as much money, $7.1 million, in its opening weekend. And “Melania” was considered a box-office success in documentary terms when it was released.
“You Can See Everything”处于独类之中。一些影评人预测它将获得最佳影片提名。该片将于下周末在全美公映，必将从其首映周的热度中获益。
“You Can See Everything” is in a category of its own. Some film critics have predicted it will receive a Best Picture nomination. It opens nationwide next weekend, sure to benefit from all the buzz from its opening weekend.
整体来看，“You Can See Everything”在北美周末票房排名第二。派拉蒙公司改编的《街头霸王》电影改编游戏在北美以约3000万美元的票房收入，从3575个银幕上映。派拉蒙公司由斯卡伊德公司所有，而斯卡伊德公司也拥有CNN。
Overall, “You Can See Everything” finished No. 2 at the weekend box office in North America. Paramount’s video game adaptation of “Street Fighter” topped the box office with an estimated $30 million in ticket sales from 3,575 screens. Paramount is owned by Skydance, which also owns CNN.
