	Titanic (1997) at Reel Classics: a review
		In the 1953 film (in which you'll notice a few similarities, but of which, the 1997 film is not a remake), the focus of the movie is the breakup of Stanwyck and Webb's marriage; the Titanic is only the setting.
		The 1953 movie could easily have been transplanted to any other time and place with a tragic end, and its essence would have remained the same because in the 1953 film, the plot and characters are the focus.
		In this movie, the setting of the story overwhelms the story itself-- so much so that at one point after the ship had begun to sink, Kate and Leo appeared on the screen and I realized I had forgotten they were still on the boat; so much else was going on.

	Titanic1953
		Titanic was to be one of the last movies Fox filmed in the academy ratio of 1.37:1.
		Titanic was directed by Jean Negulesco and produced by Charles Brackett, who was disappointed by the box office results of"Titanic": "Maybe people had a certain reluctance to seeing a film in which, they knew, almost every one in the cast would be drowned".
		Even though Titanic "purists" looked down on the 1953 "Titanic", for it's sloppy attention to detail, the film remains very popular, and certain aspects of the film were resurrected in 1997 for James Cameron's "Titanic".

		The sinking of the Titanic was neither the first nor the largest maritime disaster, yet it has lodged itself in modern consciousness more deeply than any other.
		Perhaps it's because the story of the Titanic reflects so perfectly the story of the human race on a larger scale: a group of people with riches and opportunities distributed unequally, but bound together in sharing the same small world and the same destiny.
		In the new movie, however, it is the selfishness and lack of heroism of most people that is so striking.

	Titanic Movie
		Titanic may have warned our century of the pitfalls of unfounded arrogance and faith in nearly everything, but it did not discourage the human penchant for exploration, innovation and creativity.
		As Titanic slipped beneath the sea, those in the lifeboats heard the cries of the remaining survivors.
		The Titanic sinking remains a compelling story, though, capturing our imaginations and reminding us of how, on the night of April 14, 1912, one world passed into history as another was being born.

	JOM Article on The Titanic: Did a Metallurgical Failure Cause a Night to Remember?
		The construction of the Titanic was delayed due to an accident involving the Olympic.
		Whereas the 1953 movie used a 8.5 m model of the ship, the 1997 movie recreated a nearly full size, 236 m long exterior set of the Titanic standing nearly 14 m tall from the water line to the boat deck floor, with its four funnels towering another 16 m.
		(A still from the movie appears on the cover of this issue.) The first-class dining saloon and three-story grand staircase were constructed on a hydraulic platform at the bottom of the 9 m interior tank designed to be angled and flooded with 19 million liters of filtered seawater drawn from the ocean.

		Beyond Titanic is a ninety plus minute program that examines the aftermath of the Titanic disaster and how the events were revisited in various forms of pop culture.
		While the 1953’s TITANIC may not be as epic in scope as James Cameron’s version, it is a highly entertaining movie with old time Hollywood star power.

		The ill-fated luxury liner Titanic departs Southampton, England, prior to her maiden Atlantic voyage and disastrous encounter with an iceberg off Newfoundland.
		The results of the first ultrasonic scan of the front of the Titanic, much of which is buried in mud, showed that a series of six short slits was the only damage inflicted on the ship by the iceberg, and not, as has always been thought, a gaping 91 m/300 ft gash.
		The total area of openings was found to be only about 1.1 or 1.2 sq m/12 or 13 sq ft. The unexpected discovery, which emerged from an expedition to the seabed by a team of scientists and engineers in August 1996, will force a re-writing of the countless histories of the disaster.

	Encyclopedia Titanica Message Board: 1953 Titanic Model
		I went there with my father the other day, and while I knew that the museum had a large Titanic model, I didn't know that it was the model from the movie.
		I actually didn't find out until after I left the museum that the model was from the movie (oddly enough I didn't put 2 and 2 together when I saw the giant movie poster behind it, or when the little brochure said "for the 1953 movie").
		I heard after the movie was finished, the smaller model was detailed and put on display at an amusement park in New Zealand.

	Titanic Movie Review
		The story of the Titanic is rife of irony and juxtaposition, and Cameron artfully peppers his script with these two aspects.
		Cameron fixates on these two characters, and it is their story, not the sinking of the ship, that is at the forefront of "Titanic"-- he has always put the relationships of his characters in the foreground, such as the Ripley-Newt relationship in "Aliens", or the Bud-Lindsey reconciliation in "The Abyss".
		Whether it is the spectacular visualization of the Titanic's final death throes or something as minor as the icy breath of the shivering survivors, this film is a testament to how technology can contribute to dramatic storytelling.

		Caplan became enthralled with Marshall’s description of the Titanic disaster, which was originally titled “The Sinking of the Titanic and Great Sea Disasters.” And in 1996, he became the first to edit and re-issue the book.
		Like its predecessor, the new, re-edited edition of “The Sinking of the Titanic” is embellished with a collection of artists’ renderings and actual photographs as Marshall lets the survivors tell their own tales of what it was like to live through the disaster.
		However, the Titanic operator was upset because of the interruption and told the Californian operator to shut up so he could continue to send his backlogged messages.

		Modern moviegoers rarely recall that there are a good half-dozen movies based on the Titanic disaster.
		The 1953 Titanic stands nonetheless as a fair enough entry into the mini-genre of Titanic-based films.
		It's reached a level of fame (notably due to the effects and an inexplicable Oscar for Best Writing), so much so that the new DVD release offers two commentary tracks, one of which (by film critic Richard Schickel) is some of the most banal droning I've ever heard.

		Just hours before the Titanic grazed an iceberg in the darkness of April 14, 1912, its first-class passengers laid down their white linen napkins and pushed away from the table, having stuffed themselves on a sumptuous 10-course meal.
		Unlike the real Titanic diners, guests of these repasts will end their evening with one clear assurance: They won't be heading home on lifeboats.
		With a number of Titanic buffs in her family, she quickly snatched up a copy, and eight family members set about to duplicate the last dinner.

	MMI Movie Review: Titanic (1943)
		Even though "Saved from the Titanic" was released on May 14, 1912, barely a month after the White Star liner met her doom, it was light years away from the promotional films hyping the unsinkable ship prior to her maiden voyage.
		In many ways, the story behind the movie completed by Werner Klingler seems more interesting than the fake story onscreen unless you realize that this artistically terrible film is a reflection of the false system under which it was made.
		"Titanic" 1943, unlike the American-made "Titanics" in 1953 and 1997 and the British "Night To Remember" (probably the best of all the versions), is liitle-seen or remembered today and is discussed, if at all, only in a political context.

		In a scene cut from the final version of the movie, when Ida was requested to enter a lifeboat, she refused, saying to Isadore “We have been living together for many years, I won’t leave you now”.
		Also, since Murdoch had been in command of the Titanic when she hit the iceberg, and gave the commands which opened up five compartments to the sea, his guilt must have been tremendous.
		In the movie, to support the plot, the scene has been moved to April 14th, as the ship is at sea after leaving Ireland.

		It was the first movie she had ever seen in her life.
		When reporters asked her afterwards (through my uncle as translator) if she thought the movie was realistic, all she could say was, “If they were close enough to film it, why didn’t they help?” The reporters took that as a “Yes” to their question.

		S.O.S.

		Raise the Titanic (1980) -- Okay, this one is a bit of a stretch, since it's a fantasy about the Titanic emerging from its watery grave 70 years later, with the fate of the free world on the line.
