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.

Top Cat – The Movie (90 mins, U)

Who on earth decided to turn a 1960s cartoon about a fast-talking alley cat into a 3D animation in which a dictator rules New York with his army of robots? Avoid.

Death Watch (124 mins, 12A)

Bernard Tavernier's dystopian satire came out in 1979, so you have to credit its prescience, but it's dull, pretentious stuff. Harvey Keitel uses his microscopic eye-cameras to film a dying woman (Romy Schneider) for a reality TV show.

On The Sly (77 mins, U)

A French girl stays behind in her parents' country house when maman and papa drive back to Paris. As she forages in the woods, we hear her cloying thoughts (dubbed into English).
