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.FANS OF The X-Files television series have been heard to complain that the show's itinerant approach to conspiracy theories had taken some of the lustre out of the subject. In which case, the film version isn't likely to offer any compensation. But it looks splendid on the big screen. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson (left) reprise their roles as FBI agents Mulder and Scully, and the screenplay (by the series' creator Chris Carter) gives them a meaty conundrum to chew on.
On general release
In The Castle, truck driver Darryl Kerrigan (Michael Caton) decides to fight back and stand up for his rights when his home is threatened with demolition to make way for an airport. A classic case of the little man fighting his corner, this is an entertaining Australian piece of kitsch.
