Daryl Hannah Shows Up at John’s Loft After His First Date With Carolyn
Daryl Hannah (Dree Hemingway), John’s on-again-off-again girlfriend, is at his loft when he comes home after he was just rhapsodizing to his cousin and best friend Anthony Radziwill (Erich Bergen) about how all he wants to do is call Carolyn.
Soon, he’s bringing Daryl to cousin Edward Kennedy Jr.‘s wedding in October 1993, much to his mother Jacqueline Kennedy‘s disapproval (poured on here for effect, but based in reality), and Carolyn finds out from a tabloid cover that her seemingly eager suitor is back on with his movie star ex.
Meanwhile, John has been sending Carolyn flowers, eventually telling her when they bump into each other at another event that he “can’t seem to function” knowing that she hated him. To which she replies, “I don’t know you well enough to hate you.”
The surprise rendezvous was a dramatic way for Love Story to introduce the Splash star, but producers didn’t seek input from Daryl, who’s been married to Neil Young since 2018.
“We want to find these characters from the inside out,” producer Nina Jacobson told Gold Derby, “and it’s hard to serve a bunch of agendas when you [go] to the real people. So we tend not to do that except in rare cases.”
In Daryl’s case, she’s “an adversary to what you want narratively in the story,” Jacobson explained, but “we still try to really show respect to the fact that she does have a fluency with this [celebrity] world that Carolyn doesn’t have.”
