The Independent emphasizes the necessity for accessible journalism to address critical issues such as reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech's influence. Their commitment to reporting reflects the need for factual narratives amidst a polarized political environment. The article also highlights Scarlett Johansson's directorial debut, "Eleanor the Great," which explores themes of empathy and forgiveness through the story of a 94-year-old woman's complicated journey after her friend's death. Johansson's film showcases a personal and societal struggle, making a poignant statement about contemporary societal issues.
For Johansson, her movie speaks to the moment. There's a lack of empathy in the zeitgeist. It's obviously a reaction to a lot of things.
Eleanor the Great, stars June Squibb as a 94-year-old woman who, out of grief and loneliness, does a terrible thing.
