The Independent Recommends: The Three Best Films
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.Antz (PG)
Computer-animated comedy (left), voiced by a stellar cast, stars Woody Allen as a worker ant who becomes an opponent of the colony's totalitarian regime. Good fun, and Allen's best work in a while.
Out of Sight (15)
Director Steven Soderbergh's tale of love on opposite sides of the law knocks spots off every previous Elmore Leonard adaptation, and boasts in George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez the romantic pairing of the cinematic year.
My Name is Joe (15)
Ken Loach's drama tells the tale of Joe (Peter Mullan), a recovering alcoholic torn between his old life and his new. My Name is Joe brilliantly spotlights the groping hopes of a Britain caught below the poverty line.
