TITANIC

Brock Lovett (Bill Paxton) is a somewhat ruthless treasure hunter searching for profit under the sea in
the debris of the wrecked liner Titanic. In particular, he is searching for a necklace featuring an historic blue
diamond that is rumoured to have sunk with the ship. He believes he is on the right track when his crew
retrieves a safe in which he finds a sketch of a beautiful woman wearing the diamond. The drawing is shown on
a TV news programme, and an old lady called Rose Dawson Calvert (Gloria Stewart) comes forward claiming
that she is the woman in the drawing. When questioned by the treasure hunters, she tells them her story.
When she joined the Titanic for her maiden voyage Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet), as she was
known then, was 17 years old. Her mother (Frances Fisher) had good breeding but little money, so she was
taking Rose to America to marry rich Cal Hockley (Billy Zane) a match that Rose would rather have avoided.
Attempting to commit suicide, she was saved by Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio), a raffish and charming
third-class passenger. Jack and Rose started to spend time together, ultimately falling in love, in spite of the
disapproval of both her mother and Hockley. Hockley would have done anything to prevent Jack seeing Rose,
and falsely accused him of theft. However, the historic events that followed were to change everything.
Cameron’s “Titanic” is justly recognised as something of a masterpiece. The film cost a phenomenal
amount to make, and most of that spending is visible on screen. Everything about it looks sumptuous, and the
effects that go into the sinking of the ship are grippingly realistic. The romantic thread is appealing enough, but
its greater purpose is to make the effect of the tragedy more personal. Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio
make a fine job of playing the young couple, although the romance is occasionally rather overdone and
DiCaprio does struggle at times to give his character as written any real depth. Although the film is a personal
romance set amidst a greater disaster story, it is also the story of Rose’s life and the effect her experiences have
had on her and it largely succeeds on all counts.

Reason:
I like this movie because the movies depiction and cinematography of how beautiful and magnificent
the Titanic is is attracting many people's attention. The depiction of how the Titanic sank in the film is also
dramatic The love story between an older woman and a younger man will make me intrigued to watch it
because such a love story scenario is not too much. And I like the characters of Jack and Rose, they only know
each other on Titanic ships.
