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.The 1975 movie Jaws can be in people's thoughts when they are paddling out to sea on a lilo. But you don't have to go all the way to a holiday resort for a bit of terror. Next month the Thames will have its own in the form of a shark-fin gliding through the water, before a screening of the fully restored blockbuster.
Greenwich Yacht Club will be transformed into Amity Island, the location in Jaws, with its own 1970s-inspired BBQ on the beach and the Jaws theme tune blaring from the towpath. There will be various re-enanctments to do with the film, including a council meeting to discuss closing the beach, as part of the Jameson Cult Film Club's new season of "bringing cult films to life", which are screened across the UK.
'Jaws' at Greenwich Yacht Club, London SE10 on 5 September. Free tickets from facebook.com/jamesoncultfilmclub
