      All Cameron needed to do to make the 1997 "Titanic" "more interesting"--at least for informed mature audiences instead of pandering to the dumbed-down juvenile teenyboppers for ticket sales money--was lose the distracting insulting in-the-way soap opera of of Jack & Jill [Rose] and OF COURSE include the far more excruciatingly dramatic INTERESTING TRUTH--like the Californian, and portraying the correct British hymn-tune of "Nearer My God To Thee" at the end, NOT the INCORRECT "American" (northern yankee) tune of that beloved world-famous Christian Hymn--the Real Truth is far more gripping AND INTERESTING and beautiful (i.e. the actual hymn) than Cameron's silly soap opera. The still-far superior authentic 1958 "A Night To Remember" remains the unchallenged Classic TRUTH--all it needs is colour, present-day special effects technology, and depicting the breakup and it would be the untouchable genuine definitive portrayal.

    Leo’s character was not based on Jack Thayer. Jack Dawson was actually a fictional character. Jack Thayer survived the sinking, and even claimed he saw the ship break in two during the final moments. For many years, his claim was not taken seriously. But in 1985, a man named Robert Ballard discovered the wreck nearly three miles below the surface of the North Atlantic Ocean, in two pieces.

    Rose and Jack were a fictional creation of the film-makers to represent some of the different types of people who were passengers on the ship, to give a romantic story to engage the interest of the cinemagoer and to overlay the real tragedy of sink. I think they should have made a story about the two real people that was was on the Titanic. Isa and Isador Strauss, the owners of Macy Department’s Store in New York and whom had been married for forty years when they boarded the fateful ocean liner. Mrs Strauss could have been saved had she got into a lifeboat being a first class passenger she had priority above the others but, Mrs Strauss refused to leave her husband and they both went down with the Titanic.

      I loved the book he wrote. Especially the part where he told the reader that the stories told by survivors about the ship breaking in two were absurd and that he didn't even want to address it. Then he told of the boilers breaking free and the loud crashes they made while tearing through the ship as they fell. These things made me laugh since the sounds he described as the boilers tearing through the ship as they broke free were actually the sounds of the ship breaking in two. He would have been flabbergasted if he was alive in 1985 when they found the ship in two pieces AND the boilers still in place.

    William Murdoch was a hero on Titanic, he did not kill anyone and did not kill himself. He was reported by those who survived as staying at his post and helping as many people as he could. In Scotland he is a Titanic hero. It was the most shameful thing the producers of the film did for drama.

      Agreed. There was a lot of speculation in 1912 about someone killing himself and people being shot. In reality, the shots that were heard by the survivors were the shots being fired out to see in order to keep people in line. No one was every shot.

      I actually heard that too and that his family really got offended about it and even asked for the scene to be removed and for the producers to apologize.
      Anyway, I can say for myself that I never saw him as a coward. for me, in the film he portrays a sincere, dutiful officer who tried to follow protocol and to save as many people as possible.
      Even IF he had actually shot himself, he wouldn't be any less honorable. Mr. Murdoch remains a hero and part of the Titanic.

      Captain Smith and the officers were found guilty of negligent homicide by Congress. Naval officers have given interviews stating that smith and his senior officers were the worst in history. There are many credible rumors that smith disguised himself and survived. The captain of the carpathia claimed to have seen smith in America.
      Stop being an apologist for the worst captain in history. Smith didn't even save the maximum number of people he could've. He only saved 700 when he could've saved 1100. 400 more people should've been in the lifeboats but smith didn't think it was important enough to order his officers to send them out full.
      "Captain" smith deserves less than zero respect. He was a despicable incompetent jackass.
