MOVIE REVIEW – TITANIC
TITANIC
Titanic is a movie directed by a famous Hollywood director, James Cameron. Titanic is one of the highest grossing films in romance. This movie was made based on a catastrophe of April 14 and 15, 1912 that was the sink of Titanic ship.
Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a young boy who wins passage to America aboard the Titanic in a lucky game of poker (upon boarding the ship, Jack tells to his friend that they are "the luckiest sons of bitches in the world"). Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet) is travelling to America, to be married to Cal Hockley (Billy Zane), a situation she is not thrilled about. Sparks fly when Dawson manages to talk Rose out of jumping overboard, but tragedy waits as the unsinkable ship hits and iceberg and begins to flounder. In the movie, this story is presented to the audience as a flashback. The narrator is Rose, 101 years old, with the last name Dawson. She tells the story to a treasure hunter (Bill Paxton), who is looking for the famous and valuable Heart of the Ocean, a diamond that was given to Rose by her fiancé, Hockley. The ship is thought to be unsinkable, and so a compromise is made on the number of lifeboats aboard. When the ship sinks, it is the richest that get first priority on the lifeboats. While they wait in half-full lifeboats, they are exposed to the cries of people freezing to their deaths and don't do a thing to help them. By the end of the movie, all three main characters have died. Jack dies in the water, Cal shoots himself with a gun (not shown, told by the Old Rose as happening during the Wall Street crash) and old Rose dies in her sleep on the recovery vessel.
This movie is so amazing that it won 11 academy awards. This movie combines such good characters and their actions, movie design, and the story itself so that people will be impressed by the time they watch this movie.
It’s something magic, fascinating and unforgettable about this movie that it has a very romantic story. Rose and Jack’s love story in this movie is heart wrenching and tear jerking as they fight for their love swearing to do so to their dying breaths.
