191April 10, the Titanic, known as the "miracle in the history of world industry", set off from Southampton, England, for new york, USA. Ross, a rich girl, boarded the boat with her mother and fiance Carl. On the other hand, Jack, an unruly young painter, won a boat ticket by gambling on the dock. Ross knows from the bottom of his heart that Carl is a real snob, unwilling to marry him, and even planning to jump into the sea and commit suicide. At the critical moment, Jack hugged the girl Rose, and the two young people met in this way.
In order to alleviate the sadness in the girl's heart, Jack leads Ross to discover the happiness of life constantly. Soon, the beautiful and lively rose fell in love with the handsome and cheerful Jack. Ross took off his clothes and put on the necklace that Carl gave her, and asked Jack to paint her as a witness of their love. When they were having sex, the Titanic hit an iceberg.
A terrible tragedy happened, and the Titanic was in chaos. In a crisis, the goodness and ugliness, nobleness and meanness in human nature have become more distinct. Jack gave his lover Ross a chance to survive. He froze to death in the sea of ice.
After telling this sad love story, the senile rose sank the priceless gem to the bottom of the sea and let it accompany Jack and this love to sleep in the bottom of the sea.
Titanic, which cost more than $200 million, was the most expensive film at that time, and it was also a masterpiece showing the technical level of contemporary computer development. Luxury passenger ships and spectacular scenes all reflect Cameron's ambition. The love story in the movie is ridiculous. Although Leonardo is charming, this trite love story is not convincing.
Almost every square millimeter of Cameron's luxury movies on the screen is piled up in dollars. The film's miraculous unprecedented box office success made it a symbol of Hollywood at the end of the 20th century (perhaps just like Gone with the Wind). I wonder if this is the complete victory of bourgeois vulgar values represented by Hollywood, or the last glory before decay (Hollywood declined shortly after gone with the wind appeared). But in any case, James Cameron has climbed to the highest peak of the world's commercial films, so he has gone down in history.
Titanic was built at Hanand Wolf Shipyard in Belfast, the largest city in Northern Ireland. Hull launching may 3 19 1 1. She is also the second Olympic-class steamboat built by White Star Company in the same shipyard. It was the largest and most prestigious manned cruise ship at that time. Titanic is 260 meters long, 28 meters wide and weighs about 46,000 tons. Although it contains more space, it leads to a larger gross tonnage. Her hull is still as big as her predecessor, the Olympic. The ship has 899 crew members and can carry 3300 passengers. Because she also delivers mail, it is also called the Royal Mail steamship Titanic. Only three of the four huge chimneys can work normally. The other is foil, whose only practical use is as a chimney in the main kitchen.
Titanic was an unparalleled luxury at that time. Although she was not the first ship to provide deck swimming pool, gym, bathroom and elevator, she tried her best to provide a level of service that she had never seen before. For first-class passengers, she provided three elevators; As an innovation, she provided an elevator for second-class passengers. Economy class passengers still need to climb stairs. One of her most famous features is her luxurious stairs. James Cameron faithfully reproduced this staircase in his film.
Titanic is a fixed-point work of technological achievements. 16 watertight cabin in case she sinks. A crew member said to Sylvia Caldwell, a second-class female passenger, during the voyage, "Even God himself can't sink this ship."
