The Chambermaid on the Titanic
The Chambermaid on the Titanic  is a 1997 French-Italian-Spanish drama film directed by Bigas Luna, starring Oliver Martinez, Romane Bohringer and Aitana Sanchez-Gijon.
It is based on the novel "La Femme de chambre du Titanic" by Didier Decoin.
The film is known variously by its French title, "La Femme de chambre du Titanic", and also by the shortened English title "The Chambermaid", which was adopted in late August 1998 to avoid the impression that it was trying to cash in on the success of James Cameron's popular film, "Titanic", which was released the year before "The Chambermaid on the Titanic" made its US debut.

Edward Kamuda
Edward Stephen
Kamuda
( November 10, 1939 – April 13, 2014) was an American historian who specialized in the study of the RMS Titanic.
The Titanic sank on April 14, 1912, after striking an iceberg in the north Atlantic Ocean.
Kamuda devoted much of his life to the preservation of the Titanic's legacy as the founder and president of the Titanic Historical Society.
Much of his research focused on the biographies of the crew and passengers of the RMS Titanic.
Kamuda co-founded the Titanic Historical Society on July 7, 1963, in Indian Orchard, Springfield, Massachusetts, with five other people.
The society was originally called the" Titanic Enthusiasts of America", but Kamuda changed its name after a widow of a Titanic passenger questioned their" enthusiasm" for the disaster which killed 1,517 people, including her husband.
Kamuda, who served as the president of the Titanic Historical Society, saw the society's membership grow to thousands during his lifetime.
Under his leadership, the Titanic Historical Society became one of the world's leading centers for the research of the RMS Titanic, as well as its passengers and crew.
Kamuda and other members of the society served as consultants for the 1997 film," Titanic", directed by James Cameron.
Kamuda helped Cameron with the historical details of the set and story.
In return, Cameron cast Kamuda and his wife, society vice president Karen Kamuda, as extras in the film.
Before shooting their scene, James Cameron told the assembled" Titanic" cast and crew," Because of these two people we are here today."
The director also introduced Kamuda to several actors, telling them," Here's the man who made it all possible."
Ed and Karen Kamuda can be seen in the background on the ship's promenade while Leonardo DiCaprio( who plays Jack Dawson) teaches Kate Winslet( Rose DeWitt Bukater) how to spit.
Edward Kamuda, who was initially reluctant to appear onscreen in the film, later described the experience on set in a 1997 interview with" The Republican To look at the books for 40 years and then to walk the decks of the ship- it was a dream come true."
In 2012, Kamuda, on behalf of the Titanic Historical Society, presented the city of Springfield, Massachusetts, with the Titanic Centennial Memorial, a 10,000 pound, black granite monument to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the disaster.
The Titanic Centennial Memorial, which was dedicated in the Oak Grove Cemetery, includes the names of two Springfield residents who died on the Titanic: Jane Carr, 47, a third class passenger and Milton C. Long, 29, a first class passenger and son of a Springfield mayor and judge.
Ed Kamuda died from a long illness at his home on April 13, 2014, at the age of 74.
He was survived by his wife, Karen Kamuda.
Kamuda was buried at Oak Grove Cemetery in Springfield, Massachusetts.
