Ryan Murphy’s work ethic is something formidable. In the past few months he’s already delivered All’s Fair (the campy lawyer drama starring Kim Kardashian) and The Beauty (shlocky horror about an STD that makes you hot and liable to explode). Now he’s the producer of Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette, the first of an anthology spun off from the American Horror and American Crime series, streaming on Disney+.
For Brits who might need some context: John Jr. and Carolyn were essentially America’s Charles and Diana. The only living son of assassinated US President John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy (later Onassis), he was considered the country’s most eligible bachelor until he met and married Carolyn Bessette. She was the original Cool Girl, a Calvin Klein shop girl who rose through the ranks of the fashion house and became an icon of Nineties minimalist chic.
