[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Daryl Hannah has an opinion piece in NYT today responding to Love Story. Worth a read [/quote]
Burying the lede. Basically Daryl says the show was absolute trash and not an accurate portrayal at all. She finds it incredibly disrespectful and harmful that they portrayed her as doing Coke off a Kennedy family heirloom. She claims 1 she’s never done Coke and 2 she would never desecrate an heirloom like that.  [/quote]

I thought it was well done.[/quote]

“A recent tragedy-exploiting television series features a character using my name and presents her as me. The choice to portray her as irritating, self-absorbed, whiny and inappropriate was no accident... The character ‘Daryl Hannah’ portrayed in the series is not even a remotely accurate representation of my life, my conduct or my relationship with John. The actions and behaviors attributed to me are untrue. I have never used cocaine in my life or hosted cocaine-fueled parties. I have never pressured anyone into marriage. I have never desecrated any family heirloom or intruded upon anyone’s private memorial. I have never planted any story in the press. I never compared Jacqueline Onassis’ death to a dog’s. It’s appalling to me that I even have to defend myself against a television show. These are not creative embellishments of personality. They are assertions about conduct — and they are false.” (via The New York Times)
