  "account": "\"You Can See Everything\" triumphed at the 11th Critics Choice Documentary Awards, securing victories in five categories, including best documentary feature and directing. The film, narrated by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, delves into the 34 days leading up to Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes' 11-year prison sentence for investor fraud. The documentary also claimed awards for cinematography (David Bolen), editing (Adam Locke-Norton), and score (Ari Balouzian).\n\nCompetition was fierce, with \"Once Upon a Time in Harlem\" taking home three awards: best first documentary feature, historical documentary, and archival documentary. However, the Critics Choice awards have not historically accurately predicted Oscar winners. Since its inception, the Critics Choice awards have only accurately predicted the Best Documentary Feature Oscar winner twice, with \"O.J.: Made in America\" in 2016 and \"Summer of Soul\" in 2022. Last year's Critics Choice winner, \"The Perfect Neighbor,\" was nominated for the Oscar but did not take home the prize. In the previous seven years, the Critics Choice awards honored crowd-pleasing films that were not even nominated by the Academy, such as \"Won’t You Be My Neighbor,\" \"Apollo 11,\" \"Good Night Oppy,\" and \"Still: A Michael J. Fox Story.\" Other winners included John Wilson, who won best narration for \"The History of Concrete,\" \"Musk,\" a biographical documentary, \"EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert,\" a music documentary, \"NAZA,\" a political documentary, and \"Everest: The Other Side,\" a sports documentary.",
