But how much flavor would be missing without the scene of the hero walking across campus alone on a winter night, his head uncovered, his jacket collar drawn tight about his neck, alone, hearing a violin play You'll Never Walk Alone in a practice room somewhere, alone, in the snow that turns to rain...
