FILM: COMING ATTRACTIONS
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Ben Stiller is the geek who botches a date with Cameron Diaz when he has an unfortunate mishap with his trouser zip. Years later, he hires a seedy detective (Matt Dillon) to track her down.
2 October: Elizabeth (right) - could this royal drama be the British answer to La Reine Margot? Unlikely to be as wild or as bloody, but it does feature an enticingly eclectic cast (Cate Blanchett, Kathy Burke, Eric Cantona).
Also: Buffalo 66, the directorial debut of the actor Vincent Gallo (The Funeral, Palookaville); and Divorcing Jack, a comedy with David Thewlis as an alcoholic journalist.
Later: Velvet Goldmine - Todd Haynes's glam-rock epic at last gets a release: see the film of the year on 23 Oct; meanwhile on 30 Oct, the comedy Still Crazy, about an ageing British rock band reuniting to hit the road, rolls into town with Jimmy Nail, Billy Connolly and Timothy Spall.
