  "account": "The Directors Guild of America Awards will not allow Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim's documentary \"You Can See Everything\" to compete for the top prize, despite the film's success in covering the downfall of Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes. The documentary will only be eligible for the Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Documentary category. This decision aligns with the DGA's rules, which exclude re-releases, animated films, and documentaries from the Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Theatrical Feature Film category. This restriction differs from the Academy Awards' approach, which has no such criteria for Best Picture.",
