FX's 'Love Story' Misses the Mark With Its Depiction of This Hollywood Icon (https://collider.com/love-story-fx-daryl-hannah-depiction-accuracy-opinion/)
Despite the show's otherwise thoughtful approach to its tragic romance, this interpretation feels irresponsible.
Love Story’s Daryl Hannah depiction is lazy and gratuitously nasty: She’s right to be mad (https://time.com/7382967/love-story-daryl-hannah/)
Daryl Hannah blasts Love Story portrayal: “It’s appalling to me that I even have to defend myself against a television show” (https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/06/opinion/daryl-hannah-love-story-jfk-jr.html)
Love Story’s Dree Hemingway says she wrote a “love note” to Daryl Hannah before portraying her on the JFK Jr.-Carolyn Bessette FX series (https://www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/dree-hemingway-sent-love-note-to-jfk-jrs-ex-daryl-hannah-before-scathing-portrayal/)
“It was really just a love note to her saying how much I admired her, how much I’ve admired her as an actress and a woman, prior to even being cast as Daryl,” Hemingway, the daughter of Mariel Hemingway, tells Nylon (https://www.nylon.com/entertainment/dree-hemingway-love-story-interview). “How much I really just fell in love with her as a human being. I watched interviews and that feeling of really spending time with somebody you’ve never spent time with, but researching. That was really the note, and just not like ‘Hey, I want to meet you or talk to you.’ Just, like, “It was really an honor of my lifetime to be able to portray you and research you.” Hemingway said that she did not reach out in order to meet Hannah in person, but instead to say that it was an “honor of a lifetime” to “portray” and “research” the Splash star. “I would have loved to directly have spoken to her,” Hemingway said, but acknowledged that her “nerves” had gotten the better of her. “I also didn’t want to intrude in any way. I didn’t want to make her feel awkward if that were something that she didn’t want to do or something.” Hannah has since blasted her portrayal in Love Story (https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/06/opinion/daryl-hannah-love-story-jfk-jr.html) via a New York Times essay.
