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.

Your support makes all the difference.

The Oranges (90 mins, 15)

In this perky, sub-American Beauty comedy drama, Hugh Laurie plays David, a suburban dad who has an affair with the daughter of his best friend, Oliver Platt. It's pleasant but bland, and oddly sexless, given the subject matter.

So Undercover (94 mins, 12A)

Miley Cyrus plays a detective who goes undercover in a sorority house. This vapid comedy didn't get a cinema release in America, for reasons that become all too clear when you're watching it.

I, Anna (91 mins, 15)

Confused, boring murder-mystery starring Charlotte Rampling, and directed, co-incidentally, by Rampling's son.

Confession of a Child of the Century (125 mins, 15)

Decadence has never been as dull as it is in this disastrous French costume drama, starring a sleepy Peter Doherty.
