Author's Review

Remember what it was like to be young and in love, well I am sure that some of you are still young and in love but that is beside the point. Some people have a love that starts out forbidden but still seems so right despite all of the odds. When two people become so close so quickly that you think that they could share a soul. Well that is the kind of love that Rose (played by Kate Winslet) and Jack (played by Leonardo Di Caprio) have. This is the kind of love that you think has the strength to survive a life time. Unfortunately Jack and Rose never get that opportunity, but in the few days that they knew each other they loved enough for a life time, but a ride on the TITANIC would both unite them and separate them all in a matter of days.

This movie is one half love story and one half complete and total horror. No it is not a horror film, but if you actually try to imagine being in the shoes of the people who were actually on the Titanic I am sure that all that would be on your mind would be absolute horror. As most of you know the story of the Titanic is a true one.

The Titanic a huge cruise ship on its maiden voyage to America runs into an ice burg and is going down into the middle of the Ocean. The boat that was supposed to be built not to sink was doing just that. A terrible fact about this voyage is that there were only enough lifeboats to hold only half of the passengers aboard the ship, and the majority of those boats were not even filled to half of their capacity. The nearest ship to the Titanic was 58 miles away but was a slow moving ship, the captain of the Titanic knew that it would take that ship at least four hours to get there, he also knew that the Titanic would not stay afloat that long.

I think that knowing that all of this really happened is what makes the movie so terribly sad. This was not an instant death by any means there was plenty of time for these people to know what was going on, some of them knew they would die, some of them tried to save their lives and others ignored the fact that their lives were in danger. Many wives had to leave the boat leaving their husbands behind to die. Third class passengers were trapped below and not even given a chance to be saved, entire families including children were lost, the captain, the boat designer and the band all went down with the ship.

None of these facts were concealed in this movie, in fact they were pretty opened about what happened and you actually feel the presence of every gory detail. You feel the emotions of the captain and the boat designer, you see a mother holding her young children tight as they are about to go under the water, you see the prejudice and the in-humanity in which the 3rd class passengers were treated. You watch as the boat is broken in half and the remaining passengers fall into the icy cold ocean. You see how the people are left to freeze in the ocean as the people in the lifeboats sat by and listened to their screams. All of this could not have been any thing less than horrible.

The beginning of the movie is delightful and the forbidden romance as Rose an upper class girl who is engaged to a very wealthy young suitor (played with perfect arrogance by Billy Zane) falls for a 3rd class passenger who has nothing but the world to offer her. If you never go to the second tape in the two tape set you will be thrilled with this magical love, but as I said before this love is not to last.

I feel that I can give more of the chilling details of this film out, even though I would not normally do this because what happened to the Titanic is historic fact and certainly no secret. And the movie does not differ very much at all from what happened historically. But even though I have revealed a lot of details about what happens in the film I have still left enough information out about the film to make it enjoyable or at least some what of a mystery.

If I was asked if I enjoyed the film, I would say that I enjoyed the love story, but I could not say that I enjoyed the movie, I was crying quite hard, and I would say that more than anything it affected me. It affected me deeply, and it made me want to learn more about this monster of a ship and of its maiden voyage. I don’t buy a lot of films but, I did buy this one. I don’t know why it affected me so deeply but it did, and still does. I have only had the courage to watch it once again since I purchased it and I sat there stunned and horrified once again. Don’t avoid this movie it is historic fact and it will definitely move you. But by all means don’t expect to feel happy and chipper after the movie is over. You will be left thinking, and you will be left affected. I continue to use the word affected because that it is what I truly was, and I can not think of a more perfect word for how I felt.

And with that I don’t think that there is much else that I could possibly say. This movie definitely made me CRY!
