Haunting

Rating: 10/10 (11 November 2012)

I don't even know how to explain how this movie affected me. Normally I am not a fan of either Kate winslett or Leonardo Dicaprio. But I can't image anyone else for the parts they played. except for the beginning, the entire movie takes place on the ship. It's like this beautiful, timeless little universe, apart from the rest of the world. The costumes were beautiful, and the ship itself was perfectly done. And you feel such a sense of loss when it's over. It really makes you realize what a tragedy it was, in a way that few movies can. It feels like there is nothing in the world except the ship, and the fact that you know whats coming makes it all the more bittersweet. The scenes of the older couple, the young mother, and old rose throwing the necklace into the ocean, and what come after that, especially made me break down.
