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.

How do films make you feel? The Independent gets personal about cinema and TV with actors, directors, cinematographers and other people from the continually evolving world of "content" in a new fortnightly podcast hosted by Culture Editor Christopher Hooton.

In spite of Star Wars swallowing up most of his time, Adam Driver has still managed to fire out some great indies the past couple of years like Jim Jarmusch's Paterson and Noah Baumbach's While We're Young. He talks to Chris about his new Steven Soderbergh redneck heist movie, Logan Lucky - essentially 'Ocean's Seven-Eleven' - his acting process, how he prepares without overpreparing, his viewing habits and the importance of making a good meatloaf.
