Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

Oscar season may be very exciting, but the greatest part of the annual event isn't the glitz, the glamour or merely seeing deserving films awarded.

No; it's The Shiznit's endlessly entertaining batch of Honest Posters.

Feast your eyes on the latest crop - including takes on La La Land, Moonlight and Hacksaw Ridge - below (and check out the full list of 2017 nominees here).

Oscars 2017: Our film team discuss who will win and who should

Arrival

Manchester by the Sea

Hacksaw Ridge

La La Land

Moonlight

Fences

Silence

You can see the entire lot over at The Shiznit and, in case you're feeling nostalgic, here are last year's selection.

The Oscars will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday 26 February with Jimmy Kimmel hosting.

It's Damien Chazelle's musical love letter La La Land that leads this year's pack with 14 nominations, matching the record previously held by Titanic (1997) and All About Eve (1950).
