84 years later, a 100-year-old woman named Rose DeWitt Bukater tells the story to her granddaughter Lizzy Calvert, Brock Lovett, Lewis Bodine, Bobby Buell and Anatoly Mikailavich on the Keldysh about her life set in April 10th 1912, on a ship called Titanic when young Rose boards the departing ship with the upper-class passengers and her mother, Ruth DeWitt Bukater, and her fiancé, Caledon Hockley. Meanwhile, a drifter and artist named Jack Dawson and his best friend Fabrizio De Rossi win third-class tickets to the ship in a game. And she explains the whole story from departure until the death of Titanic on its first and last voyage April 15th, 1912 at 2:20 in the morning. Written by Anthony Pereyra <hypersonic91@yahoo.com>

Did You Know?

Trivia

The deep-sea camera held only 12 minutes' worth of film, but each dive took many hours. To make the best use of his resources, James Cameron had a 1/33 scale model of the wreck constructed and used it to rehearse each dive. The Russian sub operators would walk around the model ship holding model subs in their hands as Cameron explained the shots he wanted. See more »

Goofs

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: "Eternal Father Strong To Save" is sung during the worship service. While Robert Nelson Spencer wrote two verses in 1937, the lines quoted in the film were quoted in a book published in 1921 and were probably written much earlier. See more »

Quotes

[first lines]
Brock Lovett: Thirteen meters; you should see it.
Brock Lovett: [seeing the shipwreck come into view for the first time] OK; take her up and over the bow rail.

Crazy Credits

Despite the fact that Paramount and 20th Century Fox co-produced the movie,
in the U.S.A. and Canada, only the Paramount logo animation is shown at the
beginning of the movie and not the 20th Century Fox logo, while in Europe,
only the 20th Century Fox logo animation is shown at the beginning of the
movie and not the Paramount logo; this may be due to distributing right
deals. Also, the Lightstorm Entertainment logo animation is totally absent
from this movie. See more »
