abstract="OBJECTIVE: The Rashomon effect explores point of view in storytelling, and the subjectivity of even honest narratives is based on point of view. In 1950, <i>Rashomon</i> was the first film to explore this. Currently, <i>The Affair</i> explores the differences in story based on point of view. Both clinical and forensic psychiatrists must consider point of view when hearing narratives from patients or defendants. <br><br>CONCLUSION: <i>The Affair</i> provides an excellent contemporary example through which to explore the Rashomon effect in conceptualization of eyewitness testimony and reliability of reporting.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
