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.WHAT WITH Taxi Driver, King of Comedy, The Untouchables, Cape Fear and GoodFellas, Robert De Niro has a peerless CV as a screen psycho. He adds to his portfolio with The Fan (10pm Sky Premier), a stylish offering from Tony Scott (Crimson Tide, Enemy of the State). De Niro plays a stalker contemplating murder as a way of ensuring his hero's (Wesley Snipes, right) place in his beloved baseball team.
Jodie Foster, who famously appeared alongside De Niro in Taxi Driver, has always been distinguished by the intelligent care with which she has played her roles - most notably in her two Oscar-winning performances, in The Accused and The Silence of the Lambs. Now she is making a name for herself as a Hollywood director and is profiled in tonight's Femmes Fatales (8pm Sky Moviemax).
