Incorporating both historical and fictionalized aspects, it is based on accounts of the\u00a0sinking\u00a0of the\u00a0RMS\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>, and stars\u00a0Leonardo DiCaprio\u00a0and\u00a0Kate Winslet\u00a0as members of different social classes who fall in love aboard the ship during its ill-fated\u00a0maiden voyage.<\/p><div class=\"umtsd649a0c9a60a76\" ><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8209967072221559\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2673331731\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.umtsd649a0c9a60a76 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.umtsd649a0c9a60a76 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.umtsd649a0c9a60a76 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.umtsd649a0c9a60a76 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.umtsd649a0c9a60a76 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n\n<p>Cameron&#8217;s inspiration for the film came from his fascination with\u00a0shipwrecks; he felt a love story interspersed with the human loss would be essential to convey the emotional impact of the disaster. Production began in 1995, when Cameron shot footage of the actual\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0wreck. The modern scenes on the research vessel<i>\u00a0<\/i>were shot on board the\u00a0<i>Akademik Mstislav Keldysh<\/i>, which Cameron had used as a base when filming the wreck.\u00a0Scale models,\u00a0computer-generated imagery, and a reconstruction of the\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0built at\u00a0Baja Studios\u00a0were used to re-create the sinking. The film was co-financed by\u00a0Paramount Pictures\u00a0and\u00a020th Century Fox; the former handled distribution in North America while the latter released the film internationally. It was the\u00a0most expensive film ever made\u00a0at the time, with a production budget of $200\u00a0million.<\/p>\n<p>Upon its release on December 19, 1997,\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0achieved significant critical and commercial success. Nominated for 14\u00a0Academy Awards, it tied\u00a0<i>All About Eve<\/i>\u00a0(1950) for the most Oscar nominations, and won 11, including the awards for\u00a0Best Picture\u00a0and\u00a0Best Director, tying\u00a0<i>Ben-Hur<\/i>\u00a0(1959) for the most Oscars won by a single film. With an initial worldwide gross of over $1.84 billion,\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0was the first film to reach the billion-dollar mark. It remained\u00a0the highest-grossing film of all time\u00a0until Cameron&#8217;s\u00a0<i>Avatar<\/i>\u00a0surpassed it in 2010. A\u00a03D\u00a0version of\u00a0<i>Titanic,<\/i>\u00a0released on April 4, 2012, to commemorate the centennial of the sinking, earned it an additional $343.6 million worldwide, pushing the film&#8217;s worldwide total to $2.18 billion and making it the second film to gross more than $2 billion worldwide (after\u00a0<i>Avatar<\/i>). In 2017, the film was re-released for its 20th anniversary and was selected for preservation in the United States\u00a0National Film Registry.<\/p>\n<div id=\"toc\" class=\"toc\" role=\"navigation\"

team board the research vessel\u00a0<i>Akademik Mstislav Keldysh<\/i>\u00a0to search the wreck of RMS\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0for a necklace with a rare diamond, the\u00a0Heart of the Ocean. They recover a safe containing a drawing of a young woman wearing only the necklace dated April 14, 1912, the day the ship struck the iceberg.<sup id=\"cite_ref-8\" class=\"reference\">[Note 1]<\/sup>\u00a0Rose Dawson Calvert, the woman in the drawing, is brought aboard\u00a0<i>Keldysh<\/i>\u00a0and tells Lovett of her experiences aboard\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>In 1912\u00a0Southampton, 17-year-old first-class passenger Rose DeWitt Bukater, her fianc\u00e9 Cal Hockley, and her mother Ruth board the luxurious\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>. Ruth emphasizes that Rose&#8217;s marriage will resolve their family&#8217;s financial problems and allow them to retain their upper-class status. Distraught over the engagement, Rose climbs over the stern and contemplates suicide; Jack Dawson, a poor artist, intervenes and discourages her. Discovered with Jack, Rose tells a concerned Cal that she was peering over the edge and Jack saved her from falling. Cal becomes indifferent, and it is suggested to him that Jack be rewarded; he invites Jack to dine with them in first-class. Jack and Rose develop a tentative friendship, despite Cal, his valet Spicer Lovejoy, and Ruth, being wary of him. Following dinner, Rose secretly joins Jack at a party in third-class.<\/p>\n<p>Aware of Cal and Ruth&#8217;s disapproval, Rose rebuffs Jack&#8217;s advances, but later realizes she prefers him over Cal. After rendezvousing on the bow at sunset, Rose takes Jack to her state room; at her request, Jack sketches Rose posing nude wearing Cal&#8217;s engagement present, the Heart of the Ocean. They evade Lovejoy, and have sex in an automobile inside the cargo hold. On the forward deck, they witness the ship&#8217;s collision with an iceberg and overhear its officers and builder discussing its seriousness.<\/p>\n<p>Cal discovers Jack&#8217;s sketch of Rose and an insulting note from her in his safe along with the necklace. When Jack and Rose attempt to inform Cal of the collision, Cal retaliates by having Lovejoy slip the necklace into Jack&#8217;s pocket, accusing him of theft. Jack is arrested and restrained in the\u00a0master-at-arms&#8217; office. Cal puts the necklace in his own coat pocket.<\/p>\n<p>With the ship sinking, Rose flees Cal and her mother, who has boarded a lifeboat, and frees Jack. On the boat deck, Cal and Jack encourage her to board a lifeboat. While intending only to save himself, Cal claims he can ensure he and Jack get off safely. As her lifeboat lowers, Rose realizes she cannot leave Jack, and jumps back on board. Cal takes Lovejoy&#8217;s pistol and chases Rose and Jack into the flooding first-class dining saloon. After using up his ammunition, he relents. Cal realizes he gave his coat, and consequently the necklace, to Rose. He later boards a lifeboat by carrying a lost child.<\/p>\n<p>After braving several obstacles, Jack and Rose return to the boat deck. The lifeboats have departed and passengers are falling to their deaths as the stern rises out of the water. The ship breaks in half, dropping the stern into the water. Jack and Rose climb onto the back of it, and ride it into the ocean. He helps her onto a wooden panel buoyant enough for only one person. He assures her that she will die an old woman, warm in her bed. Jack dies of\u00a0hypothermia,<sup id=\"cite_ref-Carlson_9-0\" class=\"reference\">[8]<\/sup>\u00a0but Rose is saved by a returning lifeboat.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0RMS\u00a0<i>Carpathia<\/i>\u00a0later rescues the survivors; on board, Rose hides from Cal en route to New York City, where she gives her name as Rose Dawson. Rose says she later read that Cal committed suicide due to financial hardship as a result of the\u00a0Wall Street Crash of 1929.<\/p>\n<p>Back in the present, Lovett decides to abandon his search after hearing Rose&#8217;s story.

She is friendly to Jack and lends him a suit of evening clothes (bought for her son) when he is invited to dinner in the first-class dining saloon.

After the collision, he tries to convince the others, particularly Ismay, that it is a &#8220;mathematical certainty&#8221; that the ship will sink. He is depicted during the sinking of the ship as standing next to the clock in the first-class smoking room, lamenting his failure to build a strong and safe ship. Although this has become one of the most famous legends of the sinking of the\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>, this story, which was published in a 1912 book (<i>Thomas Andrews: Shipbuilder<\/i>) and therefore perpetuated, came from John Stewart, a steward on the ship who in fact left the ship in boat no.15 at approximately 1:40\u00a0a.m.<sup id=\"cite_ref-seaofglass_27-0\" class=\"reference\">[26]<\/sup>\u00a0There were testimonies of sightings of Andrews after that moment.<sup id=\"cite_ref-seaofglass_27-1\" class=\"reference\">[26]<\/sup>\u00a0It appears that Andrews stayed in the smoking room for some time to gather his thoughts, then he continued assisting with the evacuation.<sup id=\"cite_ref-seaofglass_27-2\" class=\"reference\">[26]<\/sup>\u00a0Another reported sighting was of Andrews frantically throwing deck chairs into the ocean for passengers to use as floating devices.

He retreats into the\u00a0wheelhouse\u00a0on the\u00a0bridge\u00a0as the ship sinks, dying when the windows implode from the water whilst he clings to the ship&#8217;s wheel.

Bruce Ismay: Ismay is portrayed as a rich, ignorant upper-class man. In the film, he uses his position as\u00a0White Star Line\u00a0managing director to influence Captain Smith to go faster with the prospect of an earlier arrival in New York and favorable press attention; while this action appears in popular portrayals of the disaster, it is unsupported by evidence.<sup id=\"cite_ref-29\" class=\"reference\">[28]<\/sup><sup id=\"cite_ref-30\" class=\"reference\">[29]<\/sup>\u00a0After the collision, he struggles to comprehend that his &#8220;unsinkable&#8221; ship is doomed. Ismay later boards Collapsible C (one of the last lifeboats to leave the ship) just before it is lowered. He was branded a coward by the press and public for surviving the disaster while many women and children had drowned.<\/li>\n<li>Eric Braeden\u00a0as\u00a0John Jacob Astor IV: A first-class passenger whom Rose (correctly) calls the richest man on the ship. The film depicts Astor and his 18-year-old wife\u00a0Madeleine\u00a0(Charlotte Chatton) as being introduced to Jack by Rose in the first-class dining saloon. During the introduction, Astor asks if Jack is connected to the &#8220;Boston Dawsons&#8221;, a question Jack neatly deflects by saying that he is instead affiliated with the\u00a0Chippewa Falls\u00a0Dawsons. Astor is last seen as the Grand Staircase glass dome implodes and water surges in.<\/li>\n<li>Bernard Fox\u00a0as\u00a0Colonel Archibald Gracie IV: The film depicts Gracie making a comment to Cal that &#8220;women and machinery don&#8217;t mix&#8221;, and congratulating Jack for saving Rose from falling off the ship, though he is unaware that it was a suicide attempt. Fox had portrayed\u00a0Frederick Fleet\u00a0in the 1958 film\u00a0<i>A Night to Remember<\/i>.<\/li>\n<li>Michael Ensign\u00a0as\u00a0Benjamin Guggenheim: A mining magnate traveling in first-class.

Before he dies, he tries to get the boats to return to the sinking site to rescue passengers by blowing his whistle. After he freezes to death, Rose uses his whistle to attract the attention of Fifth Officer Lowe, which leads to her rescue.<\/li>\n<li>Ewan Stewart\u00a0as\u00a0First Officer William Murdoch: The officer who is put in charge of the bridge on the night the ship struck the iceberg. During a rush for the lifeboats, Murdoch shoots Tommy Ryan as well as another passenger in a momentary panic, then commits suicide by shooting himself in the head. When Murdoch&#8217;s nephew Scott saw the film, he objected to his uncle&#8217;s portrayal as damaging to Murdoch&#8217;s heroic reputation.<sup id=\"cite_ref-33\" class=\"reference\">[32]<\/sup>\u00a0A few months later, Fox vice-president Scott Neeson went to\u00a0Dalbeattie, Scotland, where Murdoch lived, to deliver a personal apology, and also presented a \u00a35000 donation to Dalbeattie High School to boost the school&#8217;s William Murdoch Memorial Prize.<sup id=\"cite_ref-34\" class=\"reference\">[33]<\/sup>\u00a0Cameron apologized on the DVD commentary, but stated that there were officers who fired gunshots to enforce the\u00a0&#8220;women and children first&#8221; policy.<sup id=\"cite_ref-commentary_35-0\" class=\"reference\">[34]<\/sup>\u00a0According to Cameron, his depiction of Murdoch is that of an &#8220;honorable man,&#8221; not of a man &#8220;gone bad&#8221; or of a &#8220;cowardly murderer.&#8221; He added, &#8220;I&#8217;m not sure you&#8217;d find that same sense of responsibility and total devotion to duty today. This guy had half of his lifeboats launched before his counterpart on the port side had even launched one.

Lightoller took charge of the port side evacuation. The film depicts Lightoller informing Captain Smith that it will be difficult to see icebergs without breaking water and following the collision suggesting the crew should begin boarding women and children to the lifeboats. He is seen brandishing a gun and threatening to use it to keep order. He can be seen on top of Collapsible B when the first funnel collapses. Lightoller was the most senior officer to have survived the disaster.<\/li>\n<li>Simon Crane\u00a0as\u00a0Fourth Officer Joseph Boxhall: The officer in charge of firing flares and manning Lifeboat 2 during the sinking. He is shown on the bridge wings helping the seamen firing the flares.<\/li>\n<li>Ioan Gruffudd\u00a0as\u00a0Fifth Officer Harold Lowe: The ship&#8217;s only officer to lead a lifeboat to retrieve survivors of the sinking from the icy waters. The film depicts Lowe rescuing Rose.<\/li>\n<li>Edward Fletcher as\u00a0Sixth Officer James Moody: The ship&#8217;s only junior officer to have died in the sinking. The film depicts Moody admitting Jack and Fabrizio onto the ship only moments before it departs from Southampton. Moody is later shown following\u00a0Mr. Murdoch&#8217;s\u00a0orders to put the ship to full speed ahead, and informs First Officer Murdoch about the iceberg. He is last seen clinging to one of the davits on the starboard side after having unsuccessfully attempted to launch collapsible A.<\/li>\n<li>James Lancaster as\u00a0Father Thomas Byles: Second-class passenger Father Byles, a Catholic priest from England, is portrayed praying and consoling passengers during the ship&#8217;s final moments.<\/li>\n<li>Lew Palter and\u00a0Elsa Raven\u00a0as\u00a0Isidor Straus\u00a0and\u00a0Ida Straus: Isidor is a former owner of R.H. Macy and Company, a former congressman from New York, and a member of the New York and New Jersey Bridge Commission. During the sinking, his wife Ida is offered a place in a lifeboat, but refuses, saying that she will honor her wedding pledge by staying with Isidor. They are last seen lying on their bed embracing each other as water fills their stateroom.<\/li>\n<li>Martin Jarvis\u00a0as\u00a0Sir Cosmo Duff-Gordon: A Scottish baronet who is rescued in\u00a0Lifeboat 1. Lifeboats 1 and 2 were emergency boats with a capacity of 40. Situated at the forward end of the boat deck, these were kept ready to launch in case of a person falling overboard. On the night of the disaster, Lifeboat 1 was the fourth to be launched, with 12 people aboard, including Duff-Gordon, his wife and her secretary. The baronet was much criticized for his conduct during the incident. It was suggested that he had boarded the emergency boat in violation of the &#8220;women and children first&#8221; policy and that the boat had failed to return to rescue those struggling in the water. He offered five pounds to each of the lifeboat&#8217;s crew, which those critical of his conduct viewed as a bribe. The Duff-Gordons at the time (and his wife&#8217;s secretary in a letter written at the time and rediscovered in 2007) stated that there had been no women or children waiting to board in the vicinity of the launching of their boat, and there is confirmation that lifeboat 1 of the\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0was almost empty and that First Officer William Murdoch was apparently glad to offer Duff-Gordon and his wife and her secretary a place (simply to fill it) after they had asked if they could get on. Duff-Gordon denied that his offer of money to the lifeboat crew represented a bribe.

The scenes were an account of the moment&#8217;s most likely outcome.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>An enclosed 5,000,000-US-gallon (19,000,000\u00a0L) tank was used for sinking interiors, in which the entire set could be tilted into the water. In order to sink the Grand Staircase, 90,000 US gallons (340,000\u00a0L) of water were dumped into the set as it was lowered into the tank. Unexpectedly, the waterfall ripped the staircase from its steel-reinforced foundations, although no one was hurt. The 744-foot-long (227\u00a0m) exterior of the RMS\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0had its first half lowered into the tank, but as the heaviest part of the ship it acted as a\u00a0shock absorber\u00a0against the water; to get the set into the water, Cameron had much of the set emptied and even smashed some of the promenade windows himself. After submerging the dining saloon, three days were spent shooting Lovett&#8217;s\u00a0ROV\u00a0traversing the wreck in the present.<sup id=\"cite_ref-heart_43-5\" class=\"reference\">[42]<\/sup>\u00a0The post-sinking scenes in the freezing Atlantic were shot in a 350,000-US-gallon (1,300,000\u00a0L) tank,<sup id=\"cite_ref-water_74-0\" class=\"reference\">[73]<\/sup>\u00a0where the frozen corpses were created by applying on actors a powder that crystallized when exposed to water, and wax was coated on hair and clothes.<sup id=\"cite_ref-blueprint_55-2\" class=\"reference\">[54]<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>The climactic scene, which features the breakup of the ship directly before it sinks as well as its final plunge to the bottom of the Atlantic, involved a tilting full-sized set, 150 extras, and 100 stunt performers. Cameron criticized previous\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0films for depicting the liner&#8217;s final plunge as a graceful slide underwater. He &#8220;wanted to depict it as the terrifyingly chaotic event that it really was&#8221;.<sup id=\"cite_ref-www.media-awareness.ca_13-8\" class=\"reference\">[12]<\/sup>\u00a0When carrying out the sequence, people needed to fall off the increasingly tilting deck, plunging hundreds of feet below and bouncing off of railings and propellers on the way down. A few attempts to film this sequence with stunt people resulted in some minor injuries, and Cameron halted the more dangerous stunts. The risks were eventually minimized &#8220;by using computer generated people for the dangerous falls&#8221;.<sup id=\"cite_ref-www.media-awareness.ca_13-9\" class=\"reference\">[12]<\/sup><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Editing\"><\/span><span id=\"Editing\" class=\"mw-headline\">Editing<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There was one &#8220;crucial historical fact&#8221; Cameron chose to omit from the film \u2013 the\u00a0SS\u00a0<i>Californian<\/i>\u00a0was close to the\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0the night she sank but had turned off its radio for the night, did not hear her crew&#8217;s\u00a0SOS\u00a0calls, and did not respond to their distress flares. &#8220;Yes, the [SS]\u00a0<i>Californian.<\/i>\u00a0That wasn&#8217;t a compromise to mainstream filmmaking. That was really more about emphasis, creating an emotional truth to the film,&#8221; stated Cameron. He said there were aspects of retelling the sinking that seemed important in pre- and post-production, but turned out to be less important as the film evolved. &#8220;The story of the\u00a0<i>Californian<\/i>\u00a0was in there; we even shot a scene of them switching off their Marconi radio set,&#8221; said Cameron. &#8220;But I took it out. It was a clean cut, because it focuses you back onto that world. If\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0is powerful as a metaphor, as a microcosm, for the end of the world in a sense, then that world must be self-contained.&#8221;<sup id=\"cite_ref-www.industrycentral.net_23-9\" class=\"reference\">[22]<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>During the first assembly cut, Cameron altered the planned ending, which had given resolution to Brock Lovett&#8217;s story. In the original version of the ending, Brock and Lizzy see the elderly Rose at the stern of the boat and fear she is going to commit suicide. Rose then reveals that she had the &#8220;Heart of the Ocean&#8221; diamond all along but never sold it, in order to live on her own without Cal&#8217;s money. She tells Brock that life is priceless and throws the diamond into the ocean, after allowing him to hold it. After accepting that treasure is worthless, Brock laughs at his stupidity. Rose then goes back to her cabin to sleep, whereupon the film ends in the same way as the final version. In the editing room, Cameron decided that by this point, the audience would no longer be interested in Brock Lovett and cut the resolution to his story, so that Rose is alone when she drops the diamond. He also did not want to disrupt the audience&#8217;s melancholy after the\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i><span class=\"nowrap\">&#8216;s<\/span>\u00a0sinking.<sup id=\"cite_ref-75\" class=\"reference\">[74]<\/sup>\u00a0Paxton agreed that his scene with Brock&#8217;s epiphany and laugh was unnecessary, stating that &#8220;I would have shot heroin to make the scene work better &#8230;you didn&#8217;t really need anything from us. Our job was done by then &#8230; If you&#8217;re smart and you take the ego and the narcissism out of it, you&#8217;ll listen to the film, and the film will tell you what it needs and what it does not need&#8221;.<sup id=\"cite_ref-76\" class=\"reference\">[75]<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>The version used for the first\u00a0test screening\u00a0featured a fight between Jack and Lovejoy which takes place after Jack and Rose escape into the flooded dining saloon, but the test audiences disliked it.<sup id=\"cite_ref-Deleted_scene_commentaries_77-0\" class=\"reference\">[76]<\/sup>\u00a0The scene was written to give the film more suspense, and featured Cal (falsely) offering to give Lovejoy, his valet, the &#8220;Heart of the Ocean&#8221; if he can get it from Jack and Rose. Lovejoy goes after the pair in the sinking first-class dining room. Just as they are about to escape him, Lovejoy notices Rose&#8217;s hand slap the water as it slips off the table behind which she is hiding. In revenge for framing him for the &#8220;theft&#8221; of the necklace, Jack attacks him and smashes his head against a glass window, which explains the gash on Lovejoy&#8217;s head that can be seen when he dies in the completed version of the film. In their reactions to the scene, test audiences said it would be unrealistic to risk one&#8217;s life for wealth, and Cameron cut it for this reason, as well as for timing and pacing reasons. Many other scenes were cut for similar reasons.<sup id=\"cite_ref-Deleted_scene_commentaries_77-1\" class=\"reference\">[76]<\/sup><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Music_and_soundtrack\"><\/span><span id=\"Music_and_soundtrack\" class=\"mw-headline\">Music and soundtrack<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"hatnote navigation-not-searchable\" role=\"note\">Main articles:\u00a0Titanic: Music from the Motion Picture\u00a0and\u00a0Back to Titanic<\/div>\n<p>Cameron wrote\u00a0<i>Titanic<\/i>\u00a0while listening to the work of Irish new-age musician\u00a0Enya.<sup id=\"cite_ref-78\" class=\"reference\">[77]<\/sup>\u00a0He offered Enya the chance to compose for the film, but she declined.<sup id=\"cite_ref-79\" class=\"reference\">[78]<\/sup>\u00a0Cameron instead chose\u00a0James Horner\u00a0to compose the film&#8217;s score.
