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.

Terrence Howard's cop is tasked with talking down a potential jumper, Gavin (Charlie Hunnam), from a tall building in Baton Rouge.

"You don't have to do this," he pleads. However, actually, young Gavin does or his lover, Shana (Liv Tyler), will be murdered by her insanely jealous, Bible-thumping husband (Patrick Wilson, convincingly unhinged). Steven Soderbergh, who also started out in Baton Rouge with Sex, Lies and Videotape, did a much better job on the subject of infidelity, but Chapman's very verbose psychological thriller makes a valiant attempt to make points about faith and deceit.
