Original artwork, not a still
The world is no longer a romantic place. Some of its people still are however, and therein lies the promise. Don't let the world win.
— Ally McBeal · 1997
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
A reflective character concedes that grand romance has faded from the world at large, yet insists individual people can still carry it, calling that possibility a kind of promise worth protecting. The tone resists cynicism without denying disappointment.
