I had a very “Leo points at screen” moment while watching You Can See Everything, recalling the last question I posed to Lance Oppenheim in an interview over 5 years ago:

Got into the nuance of subjective reality in documentary form on CNN of all places.

From the @semafor media newsletter: After New York Times journalist Katie Rosman broke a story raising questions about Amy Griffin’s book, Griffin tried leaning on a university higher-up to block Rosman’s kid from getting into the school.
I saw You Can See Everything twice. It changed my understanding of what it’s really all about. slate.trib.al/rlZ8c1V

YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING is just a stunning movie. The best of the year. So much to say about it, so probably best to say nothing. (Corrected.)

This Thursday on CUPERTINO a Girls2Eva reunion. They box. Worth the price of admission.
An important and revealing wrinkle: as the movie shows us in real time, it’s not Holmes who raises questions about the quote, it’s Billy Evans, and he doesn’t even ask her if she said it, just tells her she never would have
In today's @nytimes Backstory newsletter, I talk to Amy Chozick about the new Elizabeth Holmes documentary and Holmes's dispute over a quote from Chozick's NYT profile of her. The movie brings up the quote several times as it assesses Holmes's veracity. nytimes.com/2026/10/22/insid…

A group dispatched by Hegseth's team in February attempted to move the historic globe, said to be used by Eisenhower during World War II.

hard to look at the Catapult situation and think it amounts to anything other than unionbusting by a rich kid who decided to take her ball and go home, even worse when you remember that Counterpoint has a legendary backlist they’ve been selling for pennies on the dollar for years

My Amanda Seyfried story is I sat directly behind her at Merrily We Roll Along Off-Broadway in 2022 and a stranger lost their ring in the audience so she got down on her hands and knees to look for it in the dark and found it right before the show started.
a delight talking to the Kings about their Big Tech procedural Cupertino, whose second episode ends with a heck of a twist slate.com/culture/2026/10/cu…
