The father who said “it’s goodbye for a little while…” was real and that’s what he really said to her. His daughter survived and told the story.
Eva Hart I think was her name? But I suppose there were many others who told the same for their family.
That's so sweet and sad, for a father to do his best to comfort his children so they'd go and be safe, even though he had to know he was probably going to die. That's a true father, right there.
@@JessieNebulousGaminghe died a true man’s death sacrificing his own life protect his children
Molly Brown grew up poor that’s probably why she is so nice to jack if you see the unsinkable Molly Brown it shows more of her backstory backstory
I’m gonna go get the papers, get the papers
Not all rich people are bad. On Titanic was a few very rich people who prefer go down with ship and give a chance to survive other people
“Why are her clothes always uglier”
E…..excuse me??? Her outfits were gorgeous!!
Look at her, she doesn’t even have a nice top on. Who is she to talk about fashion?
Regarding why Jack wasn't on the door with her:
If he had, their combined weight would've made the door sink further in the water, along with the exposure to the cold air. The result? They BOTH would've frozen to death.
Now im not saying there wasnt another way they both could've survived. Im saying there wasnt enough TIME to figure that out, and we know Jack would prioritize Roses life over his own.
The door prop was designed not to be able to hold them both sufficiently out of the water, given what Cameron has said on the subject.
This is one explanation, right. How about this one: they‘re both purely fictional characters and this movie strongly needed a personal drama? Just saying. Before you all start to speculate, ask the responsible writer, guys. The simpler the explanation, the better. 🤭
@@isoldejaneholland8370
That assumes Jack would have ended in exactly the right place without Rose in tow.
@@losmosquitos1108 Being fictional doesn't keep people from pointing out plot holes. Hence Cameron making sure it wasn't a plot hole.
He had them rerender an expensive effects shot because the propellors weren't rotating in just the right way according to survivors' testimony.
To quote the great Keke Palmer "did they ever think to take turns?" 😂
I don’t like the girls reaction one bit. She doesn’t get most of the basic things, she even called roses gowns ugly which they are definitely not, when jack tries to convince rose how her fire may burn out she says he barely knows her but doesn’t realise he has seen the difference in her demeanour when they are together and when she’s with the rich people to understand something that simple. She says rose annoys her but that’s what being impulsive in love is. I am Asian with little idea about English names but even I get that lovejoy is a surname! She also says she focuses on everyone not just rose and Jack as an adult but that’s the point your supposed to feel for them all and as someone who has watched this movie as a kid who barely understood anything and while growing up I felt for all those people not just rose and jack. 😑
Agree! Her reaction was just annoying 🙄
Seriously. She thought Rose didn't want to go in the lifeboat with her mother because Rose was confused. Wtf.
During the scene when Lightoler shouted at the men "I will shoot you all like dogs!" was all ad-libbed and when James Cameron approached him and said "i love that take can you do that again?" the actor asked him "What exactly did I do?" He was so into character he didn't even remember what he had done or said.
One of my favourite facts about the real titanic is that when it was sinking a baker on board handed out last of the bread to the people on board, so that they would still have something to eat as he did not know how long they would be stuck there. Whats cool is he was the last to jump from the ship before if fully submerged and managed to survive despite it being near impossible in cold water for 2hours.
After drinking a ton of booze that kept him warm. Yes he was one of the survivors
I recommend seeing the movie "A Night To Remember" 1958. It's a more historical based movie. And they show many of the real life things that happened... and the baker and his story is in there... as well as Isidor and Ida Straus They show them as the older couple laying in the bed with the water running underneath.... and many of the other crew and passengers.
There are a few technical things they got wrong.. the ship did not break in half. That was not know for sure until Bob Ballard found the Titanic in 1985
@@andreadeamon6419 Alcohol only makes you think you're warm, you actually get colder faster than if you don't drink any alcohol.
@@AnnekeOosterink And yet, despite that, the baker still survived and people have attributed his survival in part to being absolutely plastered ever since. So, the fact remains fun and true, even if the science behind it is a bit wonky.
He's briefly shown in this film too. He's the guy who shares a glance with Rose as they're on the railing about to enter the water. As they hit the water you see him go down standing up just as the real man is said to have done.
Kathy Bates is awesome, the real survivor that Kathy Bates is playing was the sweetest woman on the ship and loved to help people.
The submarine footage is real and the technology is real. James Cameron made the Titanic movie just so the studios would finance his dives to the Titanic wreck. He went there 33 times.
Also, the research vessel Lovett and his crew were using (a Russian vessel named the _Akademik Mstislav Keldysh_ ) was, at the time the movie was filmed, the only one in the world with _two_ submersibles capable of diving to the depth at which the _Titanic_ wreck lies. That's how the could get footage of a submersible exploring the wreck: the other was doing the filming. The ship and its subs were also used for at least one documentary about the _Titanic_ that came out around 1995.
When you only see one Submarine the footage is real when you see two it is a model
Only part about the tech that wasn't real were the robotic arms on the ROV. We're nowhere near being able to retrieve something that heavy inside the wreck.
@@BlazingstokeI live in Lithuania on the border of Kaliningrad where the Keldysh is based. And I heard there is a maritime museum where one can xzibit mir 1 and mir 2 submersibles. Seen some videos of folks whom did explore it said it was pretty worth and cool. Too bad that due to the war and current political climate I can’t cross the border and check it out despite it being 3h drive. Maybe one day.
@@WLDB but there is many things that was take from there and they are on museum...i really want to know how they catch it
I read that Billy Zane (who plays Cal) improvised the table flip he did when he was yelling at Rose during breakfast. Apparently it really did scare Kate Winslet a bit so Rose’s reaction was very real!
Billy Zane has said that’s not true at all, and that he wouldn’t have done that to Kate.
It's funny that Jess says "I bet they don't sleep together". I had a copy of the script in a set when I was a kid, and Cal was actually hoping to take Rose's virginity. She said "just to think that tonight, when I crawl between the sheets, I'll be the first". Cal's reply is "and tonight when I crawl between the sheets, I'll still be the first". That was cut, but at the bit where Cal lashes out at Rose for going below decks with Jack he says "I'd hoped you'd come to me last night".
Oh, and the "Put your hands on me, Jack" was a "f you" to Cal. After Jack saved her from the fall, Cal said to Jack "What makes you think you can put your hands on MY fiancée?"
Fun fact: all the sketch drawings were drawn by James Cameron
I never thought of that.
@@Kaijufan360absolutely, he takes days to finish lol
He's quite the artist
But wait did Kate did nako for this or did he just drew it closest to Kate lol ✍️
@@ChefNourhanShe was in a bikini top I heard and he 'approximated' the details lol
The story of the Titanic is really tragic, it was honestly a case of everything that could have gone wrong went wrong, and everyone from the designers to the captain to the lookouts messed up in some way. It is indeed true that it was the captains final voyage before he would have retired, and that it was travelling at a very high speed for the time considering there was an ice warning.
It had safety features on it that were very advanced for a ship of its time, with watertight compartments and remote closeable watertight doors.
On the bright side, the tragedy of the Titanic changed laws around lifeboats and seafaring forever. Its true that the lifeboats were not all close to full when they were lowered down, and that they didn't even have as many lifeboats as they could have on board. They weren't even at full capacity, yet even with 100% capacity with the lifeboats they had they could only have held 1/3rd of the passengers on board.
At the time ships of this size were considered essentially unsinkable, so the job of the lifeboats was actually designed only to make trips to and from another ship in the case of disaster.
I would highly recommend reading more into the disaster, its rather fascinating as a piece of history, I remember being taught about it in school still.
Titanic did have one piece of good luck. There was a coal fire in the belly of the ship earlier in the voyage that forced the crew to move 300 tons of coal from the starboard side to the port side. So when the ship was damaged on the starboard side and was filling with water unevenly the weight of the coal helped to balance out the weight of the water and keep the ship upright. This bought Titanic alot more time since it kept the ship from capsized like Andrews originally thought it would. He originaly thought the ship would sink in an hour and a half but it actually took 2 hours and 40 minutes.
If.one thing went right
The whole incident would have turned out differently
Right to an extent. Captain smith wasn’t resigning the way people thought he was.
He was taking a step back from being a full time captain but would still remain the commodore of white star as the documents showed.
This mean after titanic he wouldn’t be as sea as much but would often take over the titanic or Olympic on high profile voyages if they had any, and he would also take over as captain for Amy new ships white star brought out.
Captain smith was intended to captain the Britannic when she would launch for her maiden voyage and then he would retire fully from the white star line. That’s the agreement the company made between smith he would captain all 3 of the Olympic class for their maiden voyage before retiring
Also, regarding the quartet: they're the phrase "And the band played on." was made about.
Seeing this movie in a movie theater (twice) as a kid was really an experience. One of the few films where the hype is deserved. It was visually groundbreaking, just so emotionally effective, an interesting study in class differences, and had painstaking attention to detail. James Cameron went to great lengths to make the recreated Titanic as realistic as possible, and even went as far as contacting the original companies to get samples of the actual carpet and dinner china patterns that were used.
I also got to see this in theaters as a kid - well, as a young teen, and remember being haunted by it! Felt like a horror film!
I got to see it for my 16th birthday! I had turned down her offer of a big birthday bash, so she decided to spend the money she saved letting me do whatever I wanted the whole day!
I saw it once in theaters when it came out (was crying for 10 minutes at the end) and again on the 100th anniversary of the ship sinking (with the timing of the movie, the sinking happened almost 100 years to the MINUTE of the real events).
This is one of the greatest movies of all time! but also one of the saddest of course. It has amazing visuals and special effects, beautiful music, great acting, it’s a masterpiece
Titanic is legitimately one of the best films ever made and any question about that is simply because it is part romance and anything geared towards romance, and specifically women, will always be questioned as to its artistic merit.
You hit the nail right on the head! 👏👏👏 This movie was considered a "chick flick" for the longest time and kept some people from watching it just for that reason. People really expected this movie would be a serious period piece, but when they found out there was a romance arc they denounced the film and said that it's ONLY about the romance and nothing else. I even remember many guys outwardly cringing at the prospect of dating a girl who loved Titanic and other "chick flicks". I'm so glad that as the years have gone by more and more people (no matter the gender) have learned to let go of their hatred of media aimed at women with more feminine or romance themes and gave this film and other "chick flicks" a chance. 😊
Your Leo contractual freakout montage was above and beyond.... just genius!
This movie just makes the tragedy real. Of course, the story hits you, but seeing the panic gives you an idea of what those people suffered through. I’ll always love this movie. And, Leo was already a huge star. This was just another jewel in his crown. Now, Kate…this made Kate just as much a household name as him.
And all the destruction inside, like the broken China
And the images of shoes really affects you
I was going to say I think “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape” movie was what earned him his first big break and acclaim.
Leo was already a big star. He won over our teenage hearts in Romeo + Juliet before this. Part of the appeal of going to see Titanic was that it had him in it.
He actually had to do some other movies after this to break out of his teen heartthrob typecast. Took a bit, but then he solidified himself as a serious actor. Us fans weren’t necessarily on board with the shift at the time. We wanted to watch the nice boy die beautifully again.😂 I remember going to see The Beach and being like, “WTF is this?”
How dare you call Rose's dress ugly
Fr I was so shocked it kinda ruined the video for me lol.
Still beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. It dosn't matter how many people think they are beautifull if they are ugly to her they are ugly period. Please allow her to have a personal opinion. That dosn't even mean she has a bad taste.
@@sawanna508 your lane is over there, stay there next time 🥰
Kate Winslet wore that dress to the Oscars.
17:57 this famous scene with the theme song… I saw an interview with Cameron, where he explained it in depth. It was so funny. They shot 10 days or so without beautiful sunsets on this 1:1 scale ship set at Mexico‘s coast. Then, one day, filming in the set’s aft sections, Cameron saw the first clouds in the west that promised a good scene and they only had 10-25 minutes to get to the bow, set up camera and the whole equipment and shoot the scene. They all ran, Kate Winslet took off her shoes to better sprint. When Leo and Kate were in position, sun already beautifully red but also very low, she turned back and screamed at the crew and Cameron: SHOOOOOOOOOT!
Cameron was at a loss of words for the first time, he told…. 😛

I love this story so much haha
Fun fact: the scenes with Leonardo Dicaprio and Kate Winslet doing the water scenes and when you see they're shaking is cause through the majority of the film the crew used actual freezing Water from the pacific ocean in order to make everyone understand what the actual people went through during the real event. Kate would later suffer pneumonia. And yet under all of those harsh conditions they did an outstanding job with the movie
I don't believe that's true, usually anytime a water tank for a movie is used where they know the actors will be in the water, they warm it up to like 72-75 degrees. The actors couldn't be spending long hours in water thatcwas anywhere near freezing or else they'd get very sick, which would mean time out of filming scenes if an actor is sick.
Really?! That’s interesting! I always thought they used normal pool water in dark plus special effects
@gailjohnston1248 cause they didn't do the movie here most of it was done in Rosarito, Baja California, Mexico, The only part that they filmed here in L.A was when they were in water freezing to death and for Jack's death. All of that was done in a tank over at Universal Studios Hollywood
@lilybethkuhn9650 Yep and according to James Cameron when Jack says "Oh Shit this is cold, oh shit, OH Shit." That was added by Leo as his reaction to getting in the water was real
@@josephmendoza9523 doesn’t really connect to what I said but thanks for info
You know what I always thought was silly, that the elderly Rose has pictures of herself while younger and her Grandaughter doesn't recognize that it is her in the drawing. It looks just like her.
Also, neat factoid, the grandaughter is married to James Cameron.
@Ks-101 i just mean the grandma says that it's her and she doesn't seem to believe at first. I wouldn't have thought she'd recognize it on a whim either.
Not so neat factoid - James Cameron cheated with the actress who plays Rose's granddaughter because at the time he was married to Linda Hamilton aka Sarah Connor from the Terminator movies. Later, Linda Hamilton divorced him when she found out about his affair.
@@Kayjee17 Linda says they split because of his mistress The Titanic. I only see rumors that he cheated because he got with Suzy after a year. That doesn't mean he cheated though.
@Ks-101 exactly, when her grandma says "this is me" she would look at the pic and say "holy crap, that is you!". But instead she didn't recognize her. Lol
Rose and jack were made up.
The other90% are almost historically accurate.
-The baker that survived 2 hours in the water was with jack and rose on top of titanic at the end.
-Molly Brown wanted to turn the life boats around and that sailor threatened to throw her off the boat.
-Thomas Andrews was last seen in the smoking room staring at the clock.
-There was a crew man who shot himself during evacuation.
-The lifeboat that fell did happen and and was almost unusable.
-The band played until the vary last moment.
-There was a crazy party in the 3rd class part of the ship.
-The lookout didn't have binoculars since it was locked away.
-The couple that were hugging in bed were a real couple where the women wouldn't go on a lifeboat without her husband and deiced to stay with him.
Its not a 1 to 1 to the real thing, but they either gave respect of hinted to the real occurrence. this movie did justice to the ship and people on it. not just a great love story.
Rip Titanic and to the passengers.
The engineers all stayed on board to keep the power on right up until it sank, sacrificing their lives.
@@videohistory722 True.
A crewman did not shoot himself, where are you getting your information?
@@JoshuaBloom01 I’ve also read that. that there was someone reported by survivors, suspected to be a crewman, that shot himself but it was not Murdoch and has never been officially stated as true.
@@JoshuaBloom01
just to be very clear, there will never be a definitive answer, as the bodies were never recovered and that was the testimony of some survivors.
however as far as i know, there was more then one testimony for this incident, and there are 2 most likely candidates for the one who did it.
Cant remember the names, so you can google it if you want.
There's a deleted scene that explains why they were left by themselves:
Someone actually did try to warn them about iceberg sightings, and the person manning the telegrams told them to shut up.
This also happened in reality. The telegrapher on the Titanic was sending overdue messages to land. Land was far away so the receiver was set to maximum sensitivity to be able to receive the return messages. So when the SS Californian started messaging at very close range, it was very loud for the Titanic's telegrapher. So the man got annoyed and told him to shut up because he was talking to land. This was not unusual and happened frequently. The Californian telegrapher stated that they knew about the icebergs turned off the radio and went to sleep.
He was not wrong. Titanic even changed course to the south to avoid the ice field, about which some surviving officers did not know and thus indicated the wrong place of sinking.
And Jack and Rose distracting the lookouts. I blame them
James Cameron did a documentary not that long ago and along with testing whether jack and rose could’ve both fit on the door he also tested the lifeboats. They practiced with one of the boats to see how long it would’ve taken to loosen, fill and lower each boat and found that having more boats may not have even helped as they ran out of time. In fact the last two boats on the actual titanic never got fully released before it was under water, men cutting the ropes so they wouldn’t get hit was accurate. of course it would have helped if they had actually practiced what to do. Plus although one of the officers, Murdock I believe, filled with women and children FIRST then with men if no more were around…other officers filled with women and children ONLY, sending their boats out half filled if they ran out of people nearby. At least in the beginning when many were still inside thinking it wasn’t as serious. The captain did tell the lifeboats to come back using a megaphone but only the one officer did, about two hrs after the sinking which was unfortunately too late, though he did save 4 people.
When rose reunited with jack on the grand staircase at the end of the movie the clock behind jack is at 2:20am the exact time the ship sank.
Jack wanted to live and died for Rose.
Rose wanted to die and lived for Jack.
Regarding why she never pawned the necklace, from the alternate ending:
The hardest part about being poor was being rich. Every time she fell on hard times, she thought about selling it. But then she'd remember how she got that far without Cals help. She's not gonna give him one more thought.
Nice theory, but there's an even more obvious reason that Rose couldn't pawn the necklace; it's literally one of the largest, most valuable diamonds in the world. No legitimate pawn shop would touch a jewel like that.
@JoshuaBloom01 not a theory. That's what she said in the alternate ending.
@@videohistory722 Ah! But since that scene was cut from the film, it's not canon.
You wouldn't go to a pawn shop though, you'd go to a jeweler.
@@Rammstein0963. Contrary to popular belief, a jeweler won't just randomly buy any jewelry that comes in their store.
Ship vs boat: A ship is an oceangoing vessel with multiple sails or engines. As for the whole iceberg thing, I remember it being said that if they had just rammed into it head on, the ship's size wouldve pushed it or broken it. As well as trying to put the engine in reverse, which makes it harder to turn. Also, the musicians instruments are on display in the Titanic exhibit in TN. I went and saw that, and it was petty neat. They let you feel how cold that water was, in some real dark exhibits. They also give you a ticket at the start, and you have to find out at the end if you survived or not.
Also, a boat becomes a ship when it surpasses 500 tonnes generally.
try to see accurate sites about technical problems, like Encyclopedia Titanica. "being said" is not enough.
I always heard that a ship can hold a boat, but a boat can't hold a ship.
@@Chris-vk2zw Hadn't heard that, but it does fit, but there may be exceptions.
@@jimspetdragons3737 Titanic was called RMS Titanic because it meant Royal Mail Ship. Some people say SS Titanic, which is also correct because it is a steam ship, but not all SS (steam ships) are RMS because they don't carry Royal Mail.
Eight to nine years ago, I was a part of the cast of Titanic the musical. As we rehearsed and got really into our characters, we not only could understand them, but feel the traumatic emotion that they felt. I guarantee you that there was so much emotional moments that we the cast and the audience could not help but feel the empathy of everyone involved in this historical and tragical story. Now every time I watch this film, my heart sinks as I watch tragically the sinking of Titanic.
👩🏻🦰👱🏻♂️🚢🌊💙💔😭
The character that helped Jack with his suit is name Molly Brown. Molly Brown comes from the lower class just like Jack. But her husband came into some money, making them very wealthy. Also the character Molly Brown is based on the real life Molly Brown who survived the real Titanic sinking & became well known for her philanthropy
The binocular that went missing really happened and was found afterwards in it's case when James Cameron went and found it.
It wasn't found.
The last survivor from the Titanic died in 2009, alot of the survivors said their stories about Titanic and alot were different. Alot of people said the band went down playing and others said no they started off playing one song to calm people down and then they stopped, which makes sense even though people said they went down playing together. Well if they did go together playing then how did they find the lead violinist, his violin 🎻 was in it's case and it's at the museum with his name on it. People argue with survivors interviews saying they played until it sank, I wouldn't argue with people that witnessed this happen with their own eyes. Some say they music but stopped before the ship went down so I think that's where all the confusion is.
They made 12 trips down to the wreck to get the footage of at the beginning. During two of those, the remote camera vehicle went deeper inside than anyone had managed before, they say. Given it was really only being used as a prop, until then, that's pretty good.
Cameron went back after the movie was made for two more expeditions and went even further in. I doubt his interior exploration will be topped.
A man named David Blair was replaced as Second Officer the day Titanic set sail but while in a rush to get his things, he accidentally took the key to the locker that held the binoculars.
Upon getting on the Carpathia, Ismay went into a cabin and didn't come out until it docked in New York.
Cal might have only offered $20 reward to Jack for saving Rose, but compensating for inflation, that would be worth $627 today.
The fact that she gets rid of the fiancé’s necklace was a way for her to succeed in life and to get through without ever needing his help. It was the biggest fuck in his face to be like « I have your billions in my pocket but never will I use it ».
Captain Edward Smith was the premier captain of the White Star Line with the unique rank of Commodore, nicknamed the "Millionaires' Captain."
Titanic was suppose to be his final journey before retirement, as Commodore he commanded all of White Star Line's new ships on their maiden voyages.
“That was Leo’s contractional freak out moment” 😂
True Fact: When Jack stole the man’s jacket in that scene, it is actually referencing the real picture of the father and the kid throw the thing that they were playing or the kid playing.
I know it’s a serious movie but your guys’ comments had me laughing so hard. 🤣 Especially about the grandpa in the back crying LOL.
I recently watched “A Night To Remember” which is older and had a very different but very good take on the Titanic story, so I’ve been on a fix.
Yaaaaay, you are back again! And with an absolute favourite movie of mine! Wohoo! ❤❤
Cameron did a great job bringing the titanic’s last days to life. However a few mistakes did occur
One of those is the pistol that lovejoy was carrying is actually a 1911a1, which was not available till 1926.
The other one that I noticed was the dime that Rose paid Jack with was a modern version of the coin. It would have been a Barber Dime.
in the real titanic the shelves/cabinet keys they kept the binoculars were with an employee in LAND. he was like "oh shoot" yeah i'll give it back soon and forgot about it...
33:25 I don't think the boats would get swarmed actually because even after a couple of minutes in that cold cold water, their energy would be drained so much, they would actually need to be helped into the boat
What is sad the Captain Smith was supposed to retire that day and not board the Titanic but he did for his last time for sailing ships.
About the "competition to be the Captain of the Titanic". There was no competition when Captain Smith was in the picture. He was one of the most admired Captains of the White Star Line. There was even some rich passengers that wouldn't travel unless Smith was the Captain of the ship. This was suppose to be his last Captaincy before retiring and of course White Star Line wanted Captain Smith to be the one to take the brand new Titanic on it's main voyage. It would be a perfect ending to his career, until they hit the iceberg.
About Unsinkable Molly, the reason she's so nice to Leo's character (Jack) it's because she's also American and she's what they would call back then "new money" or "nouveau riche", basically someone that used to be poor but became wealthy quickly (unlike the "old money" that is wealthy because they are from wealthy families for generations). So since she was poor before, it makes sense she would connect with Jack more then any other character.
About why the lookouts on the crow's nest (the guys that spotted icebergs) had no binoculars. Apparently they changed one of the crew members before the voyage and the person took by mistake the key to the crow's nest locker, which contained the binoculars.
I was very fortunate during a family trip to Mexico to accidentally stumble upon the studio where they filmed this movie. I saw the back part of the ship and begged my parents to stop. Most of the tour guides were extras on the movie so they had a lot of fun stories. I got to walk in the boiler room, the E deck and the main staircase in the party room. A lot of it was damaged because they really did flood everything. A lot of the costumes were out on display for us to see as well. My only regret is we lost our digital camera the day before so we didn't have any pictures
I have read the biography of the Titanic's second mate - the only survivor of the senior officers. an amazing read. here is a curious detail from the titanic part: captain smith, one of the stars of the white star line, really retired, and was appointed to command the ship on his first course mostly for publicity purposes. for this reason the rest of the officers were temporarily demoted and one of them transferred to another ship. unfortunately, the observers' binoculars remained in his cabin, which no one knows about, and so , the super ship set off without a very important piece of equipment! and to this day it is debated whether the binoculars would have helped to avoid the disaster or not.
Binoculars wouldn't of helped in that situation.
@@DJ118USMC as I said, it is still being argued to this day. I also think that binoculars would not help, but I am not an expert.
Jack Nicholson limping with an axe to the titanic theme song got me 💀🤣🤣🤣
The sad thing is that Smith actually ordered “ women and children first,” not “women and children only.” Some officers got confused and prohibited men from boarding at all, while others loaded women and children around them, then allowed men onto the boats if there were no other women or children close to board. This was more common at the beginning of the sinking, when only first class passengers were boarding, because 2nd and 3rd class weren’t allowed on the 1st class boat deck. That means only first class had access to maybe the first 6 lifeboats.
Rose was fictional but Jack's real name was Joseph Dawson, they changed alot of the movie and made stuff up. There was no heart of the Ocean, there was a couple and the husband bought his wife a rectangular shape necklace same color but it wasn't a heart and it was called the jewel of the sea.
There was a man he survived even waiting in the water to be rescued, he survived from drinking whiskey...whiskey saved his life.
When Jack asked Rose if she loved Cal, and Rose started trying to change the conversation it’s because back then it was seen as inappropriate for a man to ask a lady something like that
I don't know why, but the edit at 26:47 with the shining clip and the added Titanic song had me laughing in tears. Also, Kate Winslet suffered for this movie. She had gotten Hyperthermic, almost drown, an extreme case of influenza while filming, A chipped bone, called fat, and very deep bruises. Leonardo Decaprio's had him shooting to the top of the industry, but let's have a round of applause for the lead actress.
Molly was a real person not just a characters the real survivors of the Titanic described what Molly was like and that is why they decided to include her as a character in the film. Many of the things seen in the movie really happened, like the scene with the musicians and Molly trying to get the boats to return, the division of social classes, the insufficient number of boats, the Carpathia which was the ship that was closest. Only Rose and Jack's romantic story is fictional.
James Cameron also warned the 5 guys that went into that small OceanGate submarine that it wouldn't be safe and told them 2 years about and the leader guy also told back in 2018 as well.
20:18 I didn't hear the reason why they didn't see the iceberg except they were watching jack and rose.
The reason is because there was no wind and the water was still. Even with binoculars, you can't see the iceberg's ripples until you are right at it. 21:47 the rudder was too small for the Titanic, so even putting the ship at max reverse the ship still had problems turning.
My great great grandfather helped build the titanic in Belfast shipyard.
That’s amazing 🥲
@nathancruz9172 lol thanks! He was a working class labourer but ended up learning advanced mathematics.
@@kimwexler9393 like calculus and statistics 📊
@nathancruz9172 Wish I knew more tbh but his grandson (my grandad, Bobby) was in charge of Shorts ship yard and used to set himself math problems for fun 🤣
Thomas Andrews (played by Victor Garber in the movie) was my first cousin three times removed. They might well have known each other.
They say on here that Titanic was made of iron but when tests were done Titanic was actually made of steel that's why it has rusticles.
Wow. I just wanted to watch some Titanic reaction…and I’m watching ur Friends reactions every Friday. Its my guilty pleasure.:)when I see u just uploaded this 8 mins ago.😵💫Serendipity!
The captain came back from retirement to do mare this journey!
The part where the little boy plays with a toy Top where there's a lawn chair with a jacket that Jack takes, that part was real.
$20 back then would be about $500 today, so not a bad reward.
I love you guys! Your reaction made my day. I love this movie.
this movie NEVER FAILS to make me cry
Did you know about Titanic's twin sister Olympic, the guy that built the ship said that they made the ship wrong cause they used steel instead of iron. What I find odd is that Queen Mary or Queen Mary the 2nd hit an ice berg like Titanic.
Mild steel was always used in shipbuilding at the time. For any ships.
35:42 it is heaven. 35:53 I cried when, I first saw it in the theaters rerelease of titanic.
Just for clarification. $20 dollars was a lot of money back in 1912. It would've been around over $600 or so in today's money. When adjusted for inflation. Thats a lot money to give to a stranger.😌
5:43 Actually with regards to that, a common misconception is that the Titanic was some kind of widely celebrated hit news story, but in actuality, the Titanic was the second ship of it's class to launch. Titanic was essentially the middle child of the family. It's sister ship, the Olympic, had launched almost a whole year prior, and due to recent propeller damage on the Olympic, the Titanic's scheduled launch date was pushed back a month as parts intended for the Titanic were instead taken by the already operational Olympic. In fact, the "unsinkable ship" label that the Titanic was infamous for was actually more prominently used to describe the Olympic, which had and would continue to have a remarkable service record for the rest of its career. By the time the Titanic set out on her maiden voyage, it was already old news, and the marketing team just said "oh yeah it's the same ship as the Olympic in every way so it's already proven to be safe". It was old enough news in fact that the only pictures we have of the titanic are all from one single person who was a passenger that got off the ship before it crossed the ocean, and there's only one suspected real video of the Titanic which is a short clip of the ship in Belfast shortly after the funnels and masts were installed.
TLDR: The Titanic was an incredibly unremarkable ship by the time it came out, being a near perfect clone of a different ship that was already a year old, and therefore only gained it's notoriety after sinking. The ship's captain, Captain Smith, had served on the Olympic previously, and so he was likely just the obvious choice to sail the Titanic on her maiden voyage. He was most likely handed the position on a silver platter. On top of that, it's likely that history would have completely forgotten about the Titanic and her sister ships if the Titanic hadn't sank.
The "contractual Leo freakout moment" had me weak😂
The Abyss is one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life. If you watch it, please watch director's cut, because otherwise you're missing a lot. Cameron had a lot of ideas to fit into the film, so he made smaller margins on his script to fit more, because at the time they really wouldn't let you go past 2 hours on a movie. The industry was convinced that no one would sit through longer, even though Cameron was like, "remember the old epics like Ben-Hur, where they had an intermission, so people definitely sat through really long movies?", but they wouldn't let him do it, they made him cut out about half an hour out when they saw how long it was getting... which really sucked because it was pretty much the parts that made the whole point of the film. But in a way he got his revenge, because he was able to make another water film that was more than two hours and prove his point that people not only would stay for the whole thing, but would come back and watch it multiple times, and make it one of the best selling movies of all time, so he got to kind of thumb his nose at the industry.
The difference between a regular cruise ship and an ocean liner is that cruise ships generally cannot traverse an entire ocean. They are built top heavy with a lot of the weight on the upper decks. They are made to cruise along coast lines and take relatively short trips in open water. An ocean liner, like the Titanic, is built bottom heavy, to withstand strong winds and high waves. It sits lower in the water for better balance. I sailed on the Queen Mary 2, from Southampton, England to New York last year. We went directly over the spot where the Titanic went down. The first two days on the ship, we had gale force winds and the upper decks were closed to passengers. We would literally have been blown off the ship. A modern cruise ship, as they are built today would have been toppled to its side.
I recently discovered that the actor that plays the Irish Mom is the same woman who played Vasquez in Aliens 🤯
She was also the "Foster mom" in Terminator 2
The mother's all about calling someone out for being "new money", meanwhile, her husband has squandered all the money away leaving her with "no money", lol.
Modern cruise ships are far larger, Titanic was about 46,000 tons..... The average cruise ship nowadays is in the 80-100,000 ton range, sometimes much bigger.
@@nager1997 Oh yeah, they dwarf aircraft carriers sometimes..... Floating cities.
"Lovejoy" is in fact a genuine British surname, going back to the Middle Ages.
Those small clips here and there following Nick's comments are just immaculate editing! 😂😂😂
Hey Nick, was very surprised this got cut down to just under 40 mins. most tend to split it into 2 parts. But no biggie. Seeing this film in the theater was just the coolest feeling ever! 😊 From the time Titanic first left port with those scenes, then later when it broke apart and the back end went careening into the ocean, it was a mixture of awesome and dread. The movie as a whole almost made you feel like it was filmed from true life. My late Papa/Grandpa would've loved to have been alive to see this movie. He loved Big ships! Anyways, the actor who was Rose's fiance, didn't have eye liner on lol. He just had thick black lashes that kinda made him look like he did. And a bit of FYI....the actress who plays Rose's granddaughter, is James Cameron's wife- Suzi. They almost got a divorce a few yrs ago but guess they worked it out. The Capt., is the same actor who was the King of Rohan. 😊
She wasn't his wife at the time, he was cheating on his wife with her. When his wife, Linda Hamilton (Sarah Connor in Terminator) found out, she divorced him.
It becomes unwatchable. When react videos do that I don't watch them.
Captain Smith was going to retire. He had been asked to do Titanic bc he was a chosen Captain for a lot of other voyages for the rich/famous. He was very well known amongst them.
Titanic is the greatest movie-going experience of my life
Such a beautiful movie ❤🌹only 3 movies so far have made me cry alot where I needed to take a moment to reflect on what just happened and this is definitely one of them 😢 on another note, the video clips of jack Nicholson and Leo in rage were great keep doing those kinds of things 😂
The Captain of the Titanic also plays King Theodon of Rohan in Lord of the Rings.
His name is Lovejoy cause probably he s an orphan grow up in military, that s the classical surname of old orphanage childrens
So they couldn’t see the iceberg because it was so dark that night that you wouldn’t be able to see an iceberg in front of you until it was too late.
But the thing is, the Titanic wasn’t an avoidable tragedy. It was truly designed unsinkable. By today’s standards, yes why wasn’t there enough lifeboats for the entire population. But back then, they had more lifeboats than normal, and they were designed to carry passengers to and from a rescuing ship. It was also designed to hold four compartments of water, which is an amazing feat of engineering and could be struck by icebergs.
It was only by fate that it was 5 that was damaged, which was unheard of. It wasn’t avoidable because it was designed to withstand a lot, it was fate that was unavoidable: the 5th compartment that was never meant to be struck, the complete pure darkness where there wasn’t even moonlight to reflect off the iceberg, the nearest ship that could save everyone but they decided to not answer the emergency calls, and so on
“I would climb down first.” Had me dying 😂😂
Thank you for this... I never knew about the contractual Leo freak out and it was golden xD
You forgot Leo's best freakout moment from Django Unchained
Kathy Bates is amazing in Bad Santa 2, and Misery which you said and Fried Green Tomatoes
When this came out on VHS it was split into two tapes. I almost always only watched the first tape, because it ends right after they hit the iceberg. It's too tragic, especially being real, but I enjoyed watching the two of you react. I specifically enjoyed the contractual Leo freak out and the Jack Nicholson montages. Still, now I need to go find something to make me less sad. 😅
A lot of egos went into the sinking, not just the iceberg.
In real life another ship seen those flares but didn't do anything about it, Titanic's survivors waited Carpathia around 9am to rescue them and pull dead bodies from the ocean.😢
Honestly a lot of the problems with the ship were in the production stage, the design of the ship was perfectly sound, but the ones making it cheaped out on the materials, using a lower quality of metal in the construction than was called for, a minimum number of lifeboats, since there wasn't a law about how many lifeboats were needed per person on the ship, stuff like that.
The shipbuilding materials used were standard at the time. They used grade 2 rivets and mild steel as many other ships. Garde 1 rivets were used for military ships. The problem was the impact force and rivets having slag in it. Rivets in areas where hydraulic riveting machine can't reach had to be done with hands. The rivets to be done with hands had slag that makes it brittle in extreme cold. This along with the force of impact popped out the rivets holding the steel plates letting water in.
Lifeboats were adequate according to the board of Trade regulations. It said 16 lifeboats for ships larger than 10000 GRT. Check any ships pre Titanic sinking, like Lusitania and Mauretania, they all had 16. The transatlantic route was so busy atleast one ship would respond. The purpose of lifeboats were to ferry passengers from sinking ship to the rescue ship.
And Olympic was made with exact same materials, she survived 3 collisions one being ramming a German U boat. She was the only passenger ship that rammed and sunk a U boat. We can't compare technologies of this era to that one.
If this was up last week with the submersible it would've been a hit lol. Still Titanic anything does well. As for the actual ship, there was a huge fire in the same area where the iceberg hit, days before its maiden and last voyage.. Its been said that if Titanic would've hit the iceberg straight on those compartment seals would've worked. At least, sinking a lot slower than 2 hours which would've ultimately saved more lives. Those 1500 people not to mention pets that died that night on the Titanic is just tragic.
The fire was a pretty normal thing on big ships at that time. The machines were fueled with coal, loads of coal, and it was near impossible to not have that heap of coal catching fire with all the machinery around. Some part of the coal was sweltering or on fire at any given time. It was expected, not great, but still known to highly likely happen.
At the time of the sinking, there was a strategy for crossing ice- filled waters. If seem odd to us now, but at the time, the idea was to cross the icy waters as quickly as possible.they thought is was better to steam ahead and spend as little time as you could. Unfortunately, it was an astonishingly clear night with almost to wind. As an officer said, it made the iceberg very hard to spot. Several captain on the same route remarked about it. Also, the ships were like airliners today. Everyone crossed the oceans on them and usually you could see another ship. If a ship had trouble, the lifeboats would act as ferries to a nearby ship, you were supposed to stay in them. That is why the British regulations didn’t call for more lifeboats. Again, the ship went down quickly and no ships were close to Titanic. The Captain was supposed to coordinate the lifeboats, or at least delegated it but this was his last trip and he failed his crew and passengers. The British and American governments had hearing and changed the regulations. Soon after this event, and it was a huge story, WWI started and several large liners were sunk by the German Navy. The Lusitania sank in about 18 minutes so all of the old rules had to change.
It's amazing. You could almost pass for a god, Thor.
My mom passed on her fascination of Titanic to me… I was a lil kid when Bob Ballard found the wreck- I still remember looking at the National Geographic about it- being freaked out that there would be dead bodies🥴😂 There are bits I don’t ‘love’ about this movie, but I do appreciate that they were respectful with the tragedy. And such a haunting music score!
Basically, you can put a boat on a ship, but you can't put a ship on a boat.
P.S. I remember taking my parents to see the movie, and my father getting increasingly upset at the captain and the chief officer (he was a captain himself). Afterwards he said that the biggest mistake they made, apart from the obviously lacking basic safety procedures which were only introduced after the Titanic disaster, was changing course to try and avoid hitting the iceberg when it was already too late. He said it would've been better to just put the engine in reverse and hit it head on. That way you would've had damage in only one compartment.
