One of my favorite movies of all time is the 1997 classic Titanic. It even features 2 of my favorite actors Kate Winslet and Leo DiCaprio
They are both wonderful in their roles. I just loved their chemistry.
It makes me wish it were real. There was a real life love story on the Titanic with Emilio Portaluppi, but I don't think it holds a candle to Jack and Rose.
I'll have to read up on that true story. I've never heard of it. Obviously Jack and Rose was a great one since Rose still has such vivid memories 85 years later.
That's a really great point actually. You could say that her heart would go on! Haha. It's crazy she remembered it as a 100 year old woman
Especially since she only knew Jack for a few days!
That's true! Man it's such a tragedy that the ship was only carrying 20 lifeboats
The arrogance of the higher-ups in that movie is incredible. I'd like to think that it wasn't really that way, but sadly that kind of hubris is totally believable.
It's really heartbreaking for sure. I would hope that in such times, the classes wouldn't be such a contributing factor for life or death.
As bad as things are now with inequality, it does seem like we've made some progress. It's at least a little hopeful to see how people were treated back then and think about how its probably better today.
