Your support helps us to tell the story
This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.
The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.
Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.
You wait, with searing dread, for the most egregious romantic "comedy" ever to come along, and there's a smidgen of relief when it finally arrives.
Love Happens: This is it. Aaron Eckhart plays bereavement guru Burke, who has written the smug self-help book A-Okay and runs seminars for sad folk, imparting such pearls as "If you don't pay the piper he will come calling". But really it's Burke that's, like, you know, sad – in a colon, open bracket sort of way – because his wife died in a car accident. Luckily for him Jennifer's Aniston's sluggish looking flower arranger is on hand to save him. There's zilch chemistry between the lethargic leads, the script and plot are crass and incompetent and it also makes Martin Sheen (the US president, no less) look like an idiot.
