FILM: BOX-OFFICE CHARTS
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.Apart from the inevitable crash-landing of Toy Story at number one, things are getting worryingly cosy in the UK chart - Braveheart has been in there for 30 weeks, and things can only get worse since it won Best Picture. There's hope in the US chart: the Coen Brothers' funny and brutal Fargo has made a respectable showing; Spike Lee's 'phone-sex comedy Girl 6 has grossed less on more screens, but what the people really want is Sharon Stone and Isabelle Adjani in Diabolique, a remake of Henri-Georges Clouzot's Les Diaboliques.
