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.Night on Earth (15; Lumiere, Gate, Camden Plaza, MGM Fulham Rd). Five tales in a taxi, told in glowing style by a globe-trotting Jim Jarmusch.
Belle de Jour (18; MGM Swiss Centre and Tottenham Ct Rd). A new release for Luis Bunuel's alarmingly cool 1967 study of sexual fantasy, starring Catherine Deneuve.
The Player (15; Odeon Kensington & Mezzanine, MGM Shaftesbury Ave, Haymarket, Chelsea and Trocadero, Whiteleys, Renoir, Screen on the Hill). Tim Robbins excels in a brilliant bite at modern Hollywood.
Casablanca (U; Plaza). Fifty years old and playing again where it belongs, up on the big screen.
In a Lonely Place, They Live by Night and Bigger Than Life (Everyman 071- 435 1525, Tues only). A fine triple-bill of Nicholas Ray dramas, with Bogart and James Mason on especially good (and paranoid) form.
