There isn’t a person in the world who hasn’t heard of Titanic. It was a huge passenger liner that sank in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912. This tragedy happened due to the liner’s collision with an iceberg. It was one of the largest and most memorable disasters that the twentieth century brought to mankind. Titanic was one of the biggest liners built at the beginning of the century by the British company “White Star''.
The Titanic went on his first and last voyage to America and never made it. The ship departed from Southampton in the UK to New York City. At those times Titanic was the largest ship afloat. It carried more than 2000 passengers plus the crew.
The film tells us a story of two people, Rose and Jack, who fell in love with each other on shipboard. Rose belonged to a high-class society, while Jack was a penniless artist who won his ticket in a card game.
Their troubles began when others found out about this love affair. Despite everyone and everything Rose and Jack stood by each other and resisted obeying the rules and boundaries of class differentiation. Unfortunately, we will never know whether this beautiful love story would have the happy end as Jack died during the wreck of the Titanic. Rose survived. At the end of the film we realize that she will keep these feelings in her heart. And she did. She carried them through the rest of her life.
The director of the film is James Cameron.
The film was awarded 11 Oscars and I’m sure it deserves every one of them.
