Love Story has proved less popular, however, with several of the people who found themselves effectively cast, without their consent, in the production. On Friday, the actor and activist Daryl Hannah—who had a long-term relationship with the Kennedy-family scion before his marriage to Bessette—published an opinion essay in The New York Times that indicted her portrayal in the show. The Daryl Hannah of the series, ditzy and needy and serving as a human complication to the love story on offer, is, Hannah asserted, a lie. The character’s arc is “not even a remotely accurate representation of my life, my conduct or my relationship with John,” she wrote. Her essay came with a plaintive title: “How Can Love Story Get Away With This?”
