Rohan Naahar is a News Writer for Collider. From Francois Ozon to David Fincher, he'll watch anything once.

He has covered everything from Marvel to the Oscars, and Marvel at the Oscars. He also writes obsessively about the box office, charting the many hits and misses that are released weekly, and how their commercial performance shapes public perception. In his time at Collider, he has also helped drive diversity by writing stories about the multiple Indian film industries, with a goal of introducing audiences to a whole new world of cinema.

Coming off its record-breaking box-office debut last weekend, A24's You Can See Everything delivered a textbook wide expansion this weekend, nearly stealing the top spot from Clayface. The three-hour documentary film, co-directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, follows the disgraced entrepreneur Elizabeth Holmes in the days leading up to her incarceration for fraud. Holmes' story has inspired the Hulu limited series The Dropout, and the HBO documentary The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley. A24 devised an engaging marketing strategy for the new movie, which was filmed covertly and revealed at a secret screening at September's Telluride Film Festival.

The movie grossed $15 million in its first weekend at the domestic box office, playing in a little more than 800 theaters. This week, A24 expanded its theater count to more than 2,650. The distributor has successfully leveled up, as promised, in recent years thanks to films such as Civil War, The Drama, and Primetime. The horror sensation Backrooms became the highest-grossing A24 movie of all time, with a global haul of $400 million against a reported budget of $10 million. Like that film, You Can See Everything has received excellent reviews. Reports say A24 will campaign for a Best Picture nomination, which would be a first for a documentary movie.

The film now holds a "Certified Fresh" 98% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, "Nathan Fielder's ironclad commitment to the bit is pushed to its limit in You Can See Everything, an inscrutable Rorschach Test of Elizabeth Holmes' psyche that's as absorbing as it is haunting." You Can See Everything added approximately $20 million to its tally this weekend, coming second on the domestic chart behind Clayface, which grossed more than $25 million. The film's total domestic haul now stands at around $45 million, which is almost unheard of for a documentary feature, barring, of course, concert movies and nature films. Fahrenheit 9/11 holds the record for the highest-grossing traditional documentary of all time, with a $222 million global haul. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
