The Affair explores the emotional effects of an extramarital relationship between Noah Solloway and Alison Bailey after the two meet in the resort town of Montauk on Long Island. No marriage is beyond temptation, and there is no refuting the connection set in motion when Noah and Alison meet by chance. What follows is far more than an intimate portrait; it’s a unique and thrilling narrative that unravels the dangerous truth layer by layer.
The scene where Alison confronts Noah about his book is by far one of the most interesting things in the episode, because it finally give some context to the central storytelling device.
It's one of two incredibly tense and intense dinner scenes in this episode, which reveal so much about the characters involved - things that have been repressed for far too long - and leads to maybe one of the series's best installments yet.
It wouldn't be Thanksgiving without some truly awkward dinner conversation, and this week's episode of "The Affair" delivered the discomfort in spades.
The show seems to have become what it wants to be and is using its unique framing device in effective ways. It's evolving, challenging expectations, and has developed a captivating energy. Finally.
There wasn't a single second of The Affair Season 2 Episode 7 that was wasted. It was a perfect hour. Or maybe it just feels like it because I feel vindicated in my intense dislike for Noah.
To complete the portrait of Alison as sap vs. Noah as pathological liar, we learned that the new digs were being financed, in part, by the proceeds from the sale of Alison's Montauk house.
I'm just thankful this episode has so much Cole in it and also that it's directed by Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden, the amazing creative duo who brought us Half Nelson and the upcoming Mississippi Grind.
