Truly one of the masterpieces.....

Rating: Null/10 (8 July 1999)

A movie is well crafted when you fail to realise that it has been three hours since you entered the cinema. There is so much detail in Titanic but the detail never seems to overshadow the story. Which story? About the ship ? About the survivors? About the tragedy? There are hundreds of plots and sub-plots which all disappear when the Titanic inevitably hits the ice-berg. Then it is all about survival and the true character of people in the heat of battle. Finally, it is about generosity and selfishness.
Cameron allows you to tour the floating palace and the sinking palace. You meet kings and peasants. You get to see an enormous ship and you get to see a tiny light in a dark , dark ocean.
Truly one of the masterpieces....
