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.Dustin Hoffman puts on silly eyebrows and a sillier voice to play the 243-year-old, and frankly rather creepy, owner of a magical toy shop.
Natalie Portman plays the frustrated manager who has to learn to have faith in herself, while Jason Bateman, from TV's Arrested Development, is a drab accountant who must learn to release the child within.
This is an adult's idea of what childhood is about whimsical, prettified, and self-consciously whacky. Better to prepare your children for the world with a DVD of Hoffman in Midnight Cowboy.
