Alterations is a two-part 1988 Australian television film for the ABC shot in 1987 at Canberra. It deals with a married couple and their respective affairs.[1]
Part One: Ann is having an affair with Michael, best friend of her husband Richard.
Part Two: What would happen if Rihard had an affair with Eleanor.
The Age called it "an enigmatic, might-have-been story of Adultery His, Adultery Hers in middle class Canberra, it is peopled with cold, unreachable characters who deliver Taylor's stacatto sccript - it barely contains a sentence of over three words - in deliberately stagey monotones."[2]
The Sydney Morning Herald called it "more interesting than it was successful... nevertheless, it was a film well worth screening and watching."[3]
