As I mentioned in my post about the Beauty series, Ryan Murphy was about to release another new project focusing on romances that have gone down in US history. I have already seen the first three episodes of Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette, a story I remember quite well because it was in the news at the end of the last century and it was very common to find articles in both newspapers and magazines about John John, as John Kennedy Jr. was known. That Kennedy's life was public from birth. It was the life he had to live, being the son of the assassinated President John Kennedy. You could say they are like a royal family in American history. Younger people may not be familiar with them, but at some point they will have heard the Kennedy surname, even now, when a member of that family is part of Trump's cabinet. And if they don't know who he is, they may have seen the iconic photograph of John John as a child, waving as his father's coffin passes by. The public's fascination with this man was due to who he was. The series recreates many things I remember reading about in the press, such as riding his bike around New York, his style of dress, etc. He did those things because he could. In reality, he was a man born with privileges, so I don't buy into his aura of humility and all that. He was an attractive man, but what made him even more attractive was what he represented. He was a Kennedy, and the magnetism of power is something that attracts people, which is why the tabloid press was always interested in his love life. By the way, he loved famous women from the world of entertainment; even Madonna enjoyed the pleasures of that Kennedy. I think people idealize these kinds of stories; that's the appeal of love stories about rich people. Ordinary citizens seem to be fascinated by the romantic vicissitudes of the rich and famous. This series may be successful within the United States, but I don't know how well it will work outside its borders. For my generation, which is aware of what happened, it may be appealing for nostalgic reasons, but I find it hard to imagine it seducing a younger audience who have no idea who the hell John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette were. It's not hard to imagine that someone who can barely afford a slice of pizza for dinner would be enchanted by a story about millionaire characters who worry about pure frivolities and feel that they lead a difficult life because they are public figures, when the average viewer is a worker who has to work every day at a shitty job they hate. In the episodes I've seen, John Kennedy Jr. is greatly idealized. I don't know the actor they chose at all. I looked him up on the internet to see his filmography, and this seems to be his most important work. Likewise, the actress who plays Carolyn Bessette does a good job. Although I don't entirely like her character, I have to admit that, so far, I'm enjoying the series. It's not wonderful, but at least they manage to keep the viewer interested. The Kennedys will always be an attractive subject for stories because they are a family with tragedy woven into their dynasty. I think this series is worth watching, and if it works, I'm sure Ryan Murphy has other American love stories in mind for future seasons. Let me know what you think in the comments. ---- > Como ya comenté en el post sobre la serie Beauty, Ryan Murphy estaba a punto de estrenar otro nuevo proyecto centrado en romances que han pasado a la historia de Estados Unidos. Ya he visto los tres primeros episodios de Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. y Carolyn Bessette, una historia que recuerdo bastante bien, porque fue noticia a finales del siglo pasado y era muy habitual encontrar artículos tanto en periódicos como en revistas sobre John John, como se conocía a John Kennedy Jr. > La vida de aquel Kennedy fue pública desde su nacimiento. Era la vida que le había tocado vivir, por ser hijo del asesinado presidente John Kennedy. Se podría decir que son como una familia real en la historia de Estados Unidos. Puede que los más jóvenes no estén familiarizados con ellos, pero en algún momento habrán oído el apellido Kennedy, incluso ahora, cuando un miembro de esa familia forma parte del gabinete de Trump. Y si no saben quién es, puede que hayan visto la icónica fotografía de John John de niño, saludando al paso del féretro de su padre. > La fascinación del público por este hombre se debía a quién era. En la serie recrean muchas cosas que recuerdo haber leído en la prensa, por ejemplo, pasear en bicicleta por Nueva York, su forma de vestir, etc. Hacía esas cosas porque podía. En realidad, era un hombre nacido con privilegios, así que no creo en su aura de humildad y todo eso. Era un hombre atractivo, pero lo que le hacía aún más atractivo era lo que representaba. Era un Kennedy, y el magnetismo del poder es algo que atrae a la gente, por eso la prensa sensacionalista siempre se interesó por su vida amorosa. Por cierto, le encantaban las mujeres famosas del mundo del espectáculo; hasta Madonna disfruto de los placeres con ese Kennedy. > Creo que la gente idealiza este tipo de historias; ése es el atractivo de las historias de amor sobre gente rica. Los ciudadanos de a pie parecen encantados con las vicisitudes románticas de los ricos y famosos. Puede que esta serie tenga éxito dentro de Estados Unidos, pero no sé hasta qué punto funcionará fuera de sus fronteras. Para mi generación, que es consciente de lo que pasó, puede resultar atractiva por razones nostálgicas, pero me cuesta imaginarla seduciendo a un público más joven que no sabe quién demonios eran John F. Kennedy Jr. y Carolyn Bessette. No es difícil imaginar que alguien que apenas puede permitirse un trozo de pizza para cenar quede encantado por una historia sobre personajes millonarios que se preocupan de puras frivolidades y sienten que llevan una vida difícil pro ser figura publica, cuando el espectador medio es un obrero que debe trabajar todos los días en un trabajo de mierda que odia. > En los episodios que he visto, se idealiza mucho a John Kennedy Jr. El actor que eligieron no lo conozco de nada. Lo busqué en internet para ver su filmografía, y este parece ser su trabajo más importante. Igualmente, la actriz que interpreta a Carolyn Bessette hace un buen trabajo. Aunque su personaje no me gusta del todo, he de reconocer que, de momento, la serie me está gustando. No es maravillosa, pero al menos consiguen mantener el interés del espectador. > Los Kennedy siempre serán un tema atractivo para las historias porque son una familia con una tragedia entretejida en su dinastía. Creo que merece la pena ver esta serie y, si funciona, seguro que Ryan Murphy tiene en mente otras historias de amor americanas para futuras temporadas. > Cuéntame qué opinas en los comentarios.
