AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The 'All Right Then, Keep Your Secrets' meme features a screen capture of the character Frodo Baggins from the 2001 film 'The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.' In this image, Frodo, portrayed by Elijah Wood, has a slight smirk on his face as he says the line 'All Right Then, Keep Your Secrets.' This image is often used online as a reaction to situations where someone is withholding information or is not open about something.

OriginWho did it first?

The meme traces back to the release of 'The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring' on December 19, 2001, in the United States. In a specific scene from the movie, Frodo remarks on a noticeable change in his uncle Bilbo, and suspects his friend Gandalf the wizard knows the reason behind it. When Gandalf does not respond, Frodo says 'All Right Then, Keep Your Secrets.' This line eventually became the basis for the meme years later, especially after it was isolated in a clip by YouTuber Quote & Quit on June 1, 2017, which can be seen here: Youtube video of the quote.^[1]
