The film that left a deep and lasting impression on me is a great work
of James Cameron direction – “Titanic”. This is feature colored film of more
than 3 hours long. This film was released by Columbia Pictures associated with
20th Century Fox. For Russian audience it was doubled by several TV companies
and channels.The director of “Titanic” is well-known Canadian James
Cameron famous for his huge budget movie hits. “Titanic” deals with a
tremendous disaster which happened on April, 14 1912 in the Atlantic Ocean when
more than 15 hundred people died in freezing water after the enormously huge
and luxurious passenger liner “Titanic” had sunk.
On this background the love of two young
people strongly separated by position they took in society was growing.
This story is not quite typical, more likely it’s a story of prohibited
feelings among the tragic events.
The climax of the story is simultaneously
the moment when Rose (American aristocrat betrothed to a rich and hopeful
suitor) and Jack (free-spirited poor artist who won his 3rd class passage in a
card game) despite of great difference between them understood that their love
was true and the only thing really worth living. In the same time the
liner collided with an iceberg and began to sink. The end of the film
is quite logical. Rose whose mind and soul have totally changed after Jack’s
death hid from her suitor and begins a new life under the surname of the man
who could never be her husband but whom she really loved. Rose refused the
false glint of her aristocratic past.
All the scenes in “Titanic” are skillfully
directed and show the logical development of the events and changes in
characters.
