Film Review_Titanic
Good morning Principal, Vice Principals, Teachers and fellow students,

I am Coco Li from Class 5A. Today I would like to talk about a film I like. It is called Titanic.
Film: Titanic
Director: James Cameron
Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet, Billy Zane, Kathy Bates
Category: II
Duration: 194 minutes
Reviewed by: Coco Li
Overall rating : ★★★★★ (1 = poor, 5 = excellent)

Titanic is an American romantic film. The background of the Titanic is real, but the main plot is fictional. It is a story about passengers on Titanic.

Rose, the main female character, is a first-class passenger whose mother forces her to marry a rich man to solve her family's financial problems. Rose, her mother and her fiancé are on Titanic, a big new ship which is labeled as “unsinkable”. Indeed, Rose does not like her fiancé and she wants to commit suicide by jumping from the stern. At that moment, Jack, a poor artist from lower class, stops her.

Jack and Rose start to spend time with each other and they become friends sharing their thoughts and feelings. Rose shows Jack her engagement present, a necklace with a rare diamond called the Heart of the Ocean. Rose finds she is not respected and cared by her fiancé but Jack. They then fall in love quickly and they want to keep their romance alive despite all the traditional forces against them.

As mentioned, Jack is an artist and is good at drawing. Jack sketches Rose wearing the necklace. After that, they visit the forward deck and witness a collision with an iceberg. All the people are nervous because Titanic starts to sink. Everyone is scared.

There are only a few lifeboats and only some of the passengers on the ship can be saved. Rose and Jack are being apart since Jack dies…

It makes me sad when I know that Jack and Rose cannot be together. The part I appreciate most is that, the effects on making Titanic sink are so realistic. The director James Cameron must put a lot of efforts on producing the film. I think it is a great film

    Everyone felt the cold breeze on their face, their eyelashes; frozen. Their hair is iced in place and everyone is surrounded by freezing cold water. No one can feel their body, it has only been ten minutes but people around Rose are already dying. The movie, Titanic, is based on historical stories 50 years prior. White Star Line, the contractors for the creation of the Titanic, and many others, believed that the ship was unsinkable. Therefore, no one would get on the lifeboats. Although, today's forensic science proves many flaws that the ship held. The Titanic is the most influential American film because it illustrates a profound look into history, uses engineering to recreate the historical event, and demonstrates how to live life.…

    Gasping for air, Rose from Titanic clutches the post for support as her mother, Ruth, forcibly yanks the tight laces on her corset closer. Whipping Rose around, Ruth glares straight into Rose’s eyes and admonishes,” This is not a game! Our situation is precarious. You know that the money is gone!” Rose snaps, “Of course I know it’s gone. You remind me every day!” Bitterly, Ruth whispers, “Your father let us nothing but a legacy of bad debt hidden by a good name. And that name is the only card we have to play.” The tightening of Rose’s corset and Ruth’s reminder to Rose of their debt and significant social name symbolizes Rose’s confinement of her social upbringing and economic state.

    “Titanic” is one of the most famous films in the world, which is based on a real shipwreck mixed with fiction. About 2 years ago, My girlfriend and I saw the film and discussed the facticity of the film. Both of us thought that the film was a historical true story, because everything was perfect matched in the film and we could not find any mistakes in it. Nevertheless, what surprised me was that a research in Duke University found that there was a great deal of historical inaccuracies in the “Titanic” such as First Officer William Murdoch did not commit suicide on the ship, and he was believed to have…
