DVD: Incendiary
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.This confused melodrama miscasts Michelle Williams as an East Ender who's having an affair with Ewan McGregor's tabloid hack when a terrorist bomb goes off in London, killing her husband. The story would have to be searingly intelligent to tackle such a contentious topic, but 'Incendiary' is so scrappy it's insulting. What can you say about a script in which the heroine is shot by the police, and then, a scene or two later, the incident is completely forgotten? Nicholas Barber
