Holmes's Partner Explains the Cameras, Without Having Seen the Film

Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim's documentary about Elizabeth Holmes, “You Can See Everything,” has begun its theatrical release, and Holmes's partner Billy Evans went on the “All-In” podcast to explain why the couple allowed a camera crew inside their home in the days leading up to Holmes going to prison. Variety also reports that Evans has not yet seen the movie. So the explanation on offer covers the decision to open the door, not the finished film that resulted from it — which is arguably the more interesting question, and one its subject can't answer yet.

Take

The timing is what sticks: cameras inside the house on the countdown to prison, not months or years before it.

Pushback

Granting access and accounting for the film are different things. Evans can describe why they let the crew in, but he hasn't watched what the crew did with it, so this is a statement about a decision, not a verdict on the documentary.
