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.Under the blanket of refined repression, food is everything in the culinary wonderland of I Am Love.
Cuisine stands for sex, family and betrayal against a backdrop of upper-class Milanese culture as Tilda Swinton plays Emma, icy matriarch to a grand old clan in the midst of a Shakespearean struggle over who will inherit control of the family company. As she falls for her son's friend and chef Antonio (Edoardo Gabbriellini) we're treated to a study in familial ambition and carnal desire, set to a fitting score by John Adams. Luca Guadagnino paints an intoxicating picture of Italy, from the country landscape which frames Emma and Antonio's burgeoning romance to the cold dusk of the opening winter scene.
