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.

It's once more into Wonderland with Tim Burton's attempt to give the children's classic a makeover for the 3D age.

The late Lewis Carroll may be spinning in his burrow over the creative licence in Alice's latest adventure, but you can't fault it for pace or casting; with star power provided by Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen and Johnny Depp as the not too-Mad Hatter, the film doesn't overly rely on its talented protagonist, depicted by Mia Wasikowska. It's silly, indulgent fun – and while few will yet be able to enjoy the full 3D experience at home, it's still a visual treat of the highest order.
