Brief introduction of the film Titanic;
1912 On April 5, 2002, the luxury ship Titanic with passengers 13 16 and crew 89 1 collided with an iceberg and sank. This shipwreck is considered as one of the top ten disasters in the 20th century.
1985, the wreck of the Titanic was found two and a half miles under the North Atlantic Ocean. Lovett, an American explorer, dived into the bottom of the sea himself and saw a picture on the wall of the cabin. Luo Wei's discovery immediately caught the attention of an old woman.
102-year-old Ruth claimed that she was the girl in the painting. In the diving cabin, Ruth began to tell her story. 191April 10, the Titanic, known as the miracle in the world industrial history, set out from Southampton, England for new york, USA.
Rich girl Ruth boarded the ship with her mother and fiance Carl. On the other hand, Jack, an unruly young painter, gambled on the dock to win a boat ticket. Ruth knew for a long time that Carl was a complete snob.
I don't want to marry him from the bottom of my heart, and I even plan to throw myself into the sea. At the critical moment, Jack hugged the girl Ruth, and the two young people met in this way. In order to alleviate the sadness in the girl's heart, Jack led Ruth to discover the joy of life constantly.
Soon, the beautiful and lively Ruth fell in love with the handsome and cheerful Jack. Ruth took off her clothes, 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 Ruth a chance to live, but he froze to death in the sea of ice.
Ruth, who is senile, completed this sad love, sank the priceless jewels to the bottom of the sea, leaving it to accompany Jack and this love to sleep in the bottom of the sea.
Behind the scenes production:
The opening scene with special significance at the beginning of the film is the result of the director's meditation for 20 hours in the later editing work, and at the beginning, the wreckage of the Titanic at the bottom of the sea is also partly real.
Some of them were taken by models. The way to distinguish them is that when there are two submarines in the lens, they are models, and when there is only one submarine, they are the remains of the real Titanic.
Jack's first smoking scene in the movie was criticized as misleading children, but Cameron explained that smoking was a common phenomenon at that time, and if it was not added, the movie would look unreal.
Kate Winslet took pains to send letters of recommendation to Cameron again and again, including roses and the words "I am the Ross you are looking for", and finally won the role of Ross in this century's works.
During the filming, she also suffered from pneumonia. (Cameron later clarified that this was a misinformation. Cameron said that Kate Winslet didn't write any letters of recommendation, but only sent him a bunch of roses and a card when he got the role.
It says "Your Rose". "This is the only card I received." Cameron said that when she chose the actress of Titanic, she met many talented actresses who were suitable for this role.
Winslet also auditioned on the set. "She was outstanding at that time, so we are sure that she will do well in future movies." )
