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.

Brendan Gleeson and Cillian Murphy provide insight into the "petty vanities" of evil gangster Perrier (Gleeson), the film's flawed hero Michael McCrea (Murphy) and the film script's mix of the "profane and poetic".

Jim Broadbent and Jodie Whittaker talk about bonding over their characters' shared obsession with death, working with a stellar cast of Irish actors and the difficulties of perfecting a Dublin accent.
