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.Woody Allen's greatest film? Hard to argue with its superlatively funny screenplay (by Allen and Marshall Brickman), Gordon Willis's lustrous monochrome photography, the spiffy George Gershwin score and stand-out performances.
Allen excels as the insecure TV writer who wants to be a novelist, and he coaxes fantastic performances from Diane Keaton as his intellectual soul-mate and Mariel Hemingway as his young adorer. Here, as never before, he turned sadness into something romantic and despair into something witty. "You have to have a little faith in people," Hemingway tells him at the end. If only we could have faith in Allen today.
