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.

Woody Allen has made so many films that his best is a matter of heated debate. Personally, I'm torn between Manhattan, Hannah and Her Sisters and Another Woman, but critical consensus would probably land on this 1977 comedy which saw Woody and Diane Keaton fall in and out of love and won fistfuls of Oscars into the bargain, including his only one for Best Film. The great Gordon Willis contributed wonderful cinematography and there's a delicious scene with the two would-be lovers having a nervous, platitudinous conversation hilariously undercut by subtitles explaining what they are really thinking. The flashback scenes to Allen's nerdy, yiddisher childhood are a scream, and the film also offers the rare opportunity to see Christopher Walken not playing some kind of psychopath.
