Warning: The following story contains descriptions of sexual assault, as well as spoilers for the TV show Unbelievable.
Netflix's Unbelievable takes root in the shocking true story of Marie, a rape survivor who gets charged with false reporting. The miniseries draws from a few sources, mainly T. Christian Miller and Ken Armstrong's Pulitzer-winning article, "An Unbelievable Story of Rape." Clearly, the written piece is a powerful read. But anyone following the case should also listen to the emotional 2016 This American Life podcast episode about Marie's story titled "Anatomy of Doubt."
Reported by Armstrong and Robyn Semien, the This American Life episode was made in partnership with ProPublica and The Marshall Project, the organizations that produced the article. We hear from Marie herself, in addition to her former foster mothers and the detectives on her case. The audio medium captures her vulnerability and anger as well as the guilt...

The top-billed stars of “Unbelievable” don’t appear at all in the first episode.
Emmy winners Toni Collette and Merritt Wever are the big names in this limited series, playing police officers who team up to solve the case of a serial rapist. But the first hour — and the viewer’s most strongly held sympathies throughout the entire eight-episode run — belong to Kaitlyn Dever, a phenomenally talented young performer who brings to life the consequences of violence and of mistrust of women. Her life is marked twice, first by the crime she suffers and then by the protracted inability of society to believe her.
The series, an adaptation of a Pulitzer-winning ProPublica and Marshall Project story that feels almost too painful to have been true, begins in an aftermath: Dever’s Marie, comforted by her former foster mother (Elizabeth Marvel), is telling a story of having her home invaded by...

Netflix has revealed the trailer and premiere date for “Unbelievable,” and despite its talented cast — including Kaitlyn Dever, Toni Collette and Merritt Wever — this show will be a tough one to watch.
The series in inspired by the real events in The Marshall Project and ProPublica Pulitzer Prize-winning article, “An Unbelievable Story of Rape,” and the “This American Life” radio episode, “Anatomy of Doubt.”
When teenager Marie Adler files a police report saying she’s been sexually assaulted by an intruder in her home, the investigating detectives, as well as the people closest to her, come to doubt the truth of her story. The male cops come off especially bad here.

Meanwhile, hundreds of miles away, detectives Grace Rasmussen (Collette) and Karen Duvall (Wever) meet while investigating an eerily similar pair of intruder rapes and partner to catch a potential serial rapist,...
