FUN FACT: When Jack and Rose are flying on the front of the ship and they kiss, the sunset behind them is real. They had to film the scene in only a few minutes before the sun went down.

fun fact: Gwyneth Paltrow, Claire Danes, and Gabrielle Anwar had been considered for the role of Rose Dewitt Bukater.

James Cameron’s “TITANIC” was released 14 years ago, today.

(December 19th 1997)


True facts: James Cameron drew all of Jack’s drawings. Also, the hands we see in the drawing scene are those of James Cameron.

I think for the 3D re-release of TITANIC, they should include the deleted scenes.

Because those deleted scenes are brilliant and more than half should have been kept in *cough*shooting star, trapped, Rose’s dreams, and extended Carpathia scene*cough*


FUN FACT: Rose mentions Sigmund Freud’s ideas on the male preoccupation with size to Bruce. However this is 1912, and Freud did not publish the work relating to this until 1920 in “The Pleasure Principle.” Also, up until 1919, Freud relied solely on data from females.

FUN FACT: When Rose breaks Jack’s handcuffs with an axe she doesn’t hit the handcuffs on the pipe but Jack’s hand. The handcuffs come apart by themselves.

FUN FACT: James Cameron originally did not want Kate to play Rose, because she did so many period films before then he thought it would be “lazy casting”.

FUN FACT: During filming of TITANIC, Kate kept a diary where she wrote a whole history of Rose and about her experience with filming.

FUN FACT: Rose Dewitt Bukater is suppose to be from Philadelphia.
