		That miniseries was more effective as a look into the workings of a transatlantic liner in the early 20th century than about the Titanic specifically.
		Granted, the sets for SOS Titanic could use a little work and I was never once convinced that for the large scale shots I wasn't looking at the Queen Mary, but overall I thought it a standup piece of work.
		The worst Titanic movie, sorry to say for those who feel otherwise, is Cameron's by a mile with me. No amount of accurate sets and impressive SFX can ever compensate for the worst written script ever, not to mention insufferably annoying characters and performances from all the leads.

		Erik Fosnes Hansen got the jump on one of the hottest themes in the literary world when his "Psalm at Journey's End" was published in Norway in 1990 as a fictional look at the seven-member band aboard the British steamer.

		A pianist and six string players, each boards the Titanic in England with few possessions but heavy baggage from the past, secret guilts and stories that unfold to the strains of syrupy waltzes, light classical music and the ragtime tunes popular at the time.

	Cameron Sending Two Missions to Mars
		In the next 18 months, he'll produce a TV miniseries and an IMAX film, both depicting the first small steps humankind takes on Mars.
		"The miniseries is gonna be written by me and Al Reinert, who was the co-writer of 'Apollo 13,' and it's gonna be directed by Martha Coolidge and I'm producing it," he said.
		With that in mind, Cameron shared the basics of the mission architecture both the IMAX film and the miniseries will share, teasing his Mars-hungry audience with numerous design sketches of the vehicles that the films will bring to life.

	Amazon.com: Titanic: DVD: Peter Gallagher,George C. Scott,Catherine Zeta-Jones,Eva Marie Saint,Tim Curry,Roger ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The 1996 Hallmark miniseries of TITANIC was unfortunate in that it ended up being largely overshadowed by James Cameron's 1997 big-screen blockbuster (by the time the miniseries was aired in the UK and Australia, James Cameron's version had well and truly exploded onto the scene).
		No version of TITANIC would be complete without the ebullient and "unsinkable" Molly Brown (Marilu Henner plays her with enough spirit and spunk to make Debbie Reynolds proud and Kathy Bates pale).
		If you're fascinated by Titanic like me, then this movie is worth checking out but if you also want a great movie experience that makes you feel as if you were on the boat the night of the sinking, then James Cameron's version is the one to go for.

		Plot Summary: The tale of the famous Titanic passenger liner that claimed to be unsinkable.
		Tv movies CAN be good but most of the time (like in this case) they're terribly concocted crap that has really nothing to do with the storyline whatsoever.
		But obviously fictional characters are created to add more drama to the movie....I do admit that Cameron did go a little overboard but he still included some fundamental people in the movie.

		As a long-time Titanic "fan" (over 30 years), I didn't want to see another Hollywood distortion (do you remember the awful 'Poseidon Adventure'?) of a sinking ship with a cast of cliches pretending to be real people.
		He actually went down with the ship (like the movie hero) -- in fact one of the funnels fell on him, splashing him out of the suction of the sinking ship, and he managed to climb onto the back of one of the overturned 'collapsible' lifeboats that were up in the bridge area.
		This is probably one of those events that would have been better as a TV miniseries spread over several episodes where they could have developed sub-plots.

	CNN - During sweeps, networks hope to clean up on viewers - May 11, 1999
		Los Angeles (CNN) -- It seems that once upon a time, TV miniseries producers contented themselves with cheerleader-murder plots, disease-of-the-week heartwarmers and women avenging the deaths of children.
		The miniseries competing for viewers during this television-audience ratings-sweeps period are more reminiscent of big-screen historical dramas with big-name casts and the budgets to match.
		Sobieski seems to have caught on to precisely the mystique with which CBS hopes to woo viewers -- the legend of the Maid of Orléans who was so famously executed in 1431.

		I think I read somewhere that the original script for the miniseries contained a different love story and all of the historical passengers and it was historically accurate but then it was re-polished or something...
		(sarcasum) the original miniseries script was repolised because one of the writers (a female) didn't like it so she repolished the script adding the rape scene, the whole robbing passengers theme ect.
		It involved the goodwin family, the new york incident, a different love story, benjamin guggenhiem and madam aubert, the astors, the strauses, the planning of the Titanic and olympic in the downshire house, the californian incident before and during the sinking all completely accurate than the one (which i had to admit) that really sucked.

		In the TV miniseries "Titanic," her breath-taking beauty caught the attention of Steven Spielberg who cast her in "The Mask of Zorro," 1998.

		Take out that storyline and I would actually have enjoyed the film a lot more, the story of Titanic is dramatic enough without adding this role.
		Some of the casting was inspired George C. Scott portraying Captain Smith was enjoyable but Marilu Henner as Molly Brown was wrong, she is just to delicate to pull off the role of the rather butch Molly Brown.

	Film Music Recordings Reviews - July- August 1998 Part 1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		From the 1953 20th Century Fox film of Titanic that starred Clifton Webb and Barbara Stanwyck we have Sol Kaplan's music which begins in heroic mould suggesting the majesty and arrogance of early 20th Century technology only to be cut short by dissonances leading into more tragic figures.
		Alwyn's multi-tiered Main Title music vividly evokes the depths and the roll and swell of the waves in its lower string ostinatos while stiff-upper lip British valour and steadfastness and then the ultimate tragedy is suggested by the rest of the orchestra; while the film's Epilogue is a moving elegy.
		Titanic borrowed from The Rocketeer and the memorable sweeping, noble melody that distinguishes Legends of the Fall turns up in a slight transposition as Coccoon.

		Conspiracies abound in Children of Dune, Sci-Fi Channel's praiseworthy miniseries sequel to Frank Herbert's Dune, loyally adapted from the Herbert novels Dune Messiah and Children of Dune by John Harrison, who passed directorial duties (due to a scheduling conflict) to Greg Yaitanes, a 31-year-old TV director and Dune neophyte tackling his biggest assignment to date.
		The 2000 miniseries gave us more of the actually pages of Dune translated to the screen, but it's acting, costumes and special effects were lacking.
		It should be noted that the twins are portrayed as teenagers in the miniseries, which I consider a wise decision to make them more relatable and easier to watch for first-time viewers.
