The Affair
There’s always two sides to every story, this we know. But it’s always interesting to see how that same story changes depending on who tells it. Two different perspectives and recollections. One person will always tell it slightly different than the next, even if they went through the same experience.
This is what The Affair is all about. As you can judge by the title of the show, it’s about two people who had relations, while still being married. Noah and Alison to be exact. Except it goes a little deeper than that because, they’re being investigated for something.
The peculiar part of the show that keeps us watching is the way they split up each episode. One half hour focuses on Noah’s side and the other half hour is Alison’s take on the “story.” At first, you can’t really tell the difference between the two accounts besides the way they approached one another or the type of shirt someone was wearing, but as the show carries on, the differences become greater.
So who should you believe? That’s up to you to decide.
