    5 out of 5 stars Poignant and Worth Watching   September 12, 2009
    Lorraine M. Riker (Wantage, NJ United States)
    It is true that this movie was totally overshadowed by the Cameron Mitchell film, and that is too bad. I had seen Mitchell's film and a few months later this movie was on television, I was blown away! A lot of facts in regard to the real Titanic were incorporated in this movie and the acting superb! I have been interested in Titanic long before the Cameron Mitchell film made it popular and I will tell you this is a must see! By the way, I just got back from Halifax where many of the bodies are buried.

    This version of Titanic is my favorite. I like it better than the version with Leonardo Dicaprio and Kate Winslet. This version is more factual instead of a "fairy tale". However, this movie still provides all the excitement of romance


    5 out of 5 stars A Technical Error   November 8, 2008

    I adore Catherine Zeta-Jones, so beautiful and elegant, and I always thought this movie was one of the best Titanic depictions. However, there is a major technical error in the movie.
    Besides the minuscule error when the lookout reports the wrong words, not "Iceberg right ahead!" (from testimony at the real inquest), there remains a larger mistake. When iceberg warning is received on the bridge the helmsman is ordered "Hard a-starboard!" Starboard is to the right. Had the ship turned right, it would have put the ship's damage on the left (port) side. During the movie, even though the helmsman is ordered to turn starboard (right), the ship does turn left (port). Such confusion.
    On the real Titanic, the helmsman was ordered, "Hard a-port!", turning the ship slowly to the left and therefore colliding with the iceberg in the well known location, on the right (starboard) side.
    I was always taught an easy way to remember the difference between Port and Starboard; PORT and LEFT both have four letters.
    If Hollywood is going to sink the ship (again), they should at least tell the helmsman to turn in the proper direction.



    4 out of 5 stars A Decent Rendering of the Story of the TITANIC   November 8, 2008
    Vladika Ioan (IN)
    Having seen just about every Titanic movie out there, I would have to say that it is a pretty decent film. At least we didn't have to put up with implausible romances, such as Jack and Rose. The romantic story lines are kept within the classes in which they occurred, rather than some ridiculous First-Class/steerage romance.

    Oddly, the sinking sequence in this version has more emotional impact than James Cameron's version did. Given the low budget, it was well done. There is a sort of starkness that makes an even deeper emotional impact than Cameron's movie.

    My main "beef" is the portrayal of First Officer William Murdoch. In this version, he is made to look like a serious contender for "Developmentally-Developed Merchant Officer of 1912! In the scene where Smith tells him that he should have either hit the berg head-on or kept the engines on full ahead. Poor Murdoch looks as if he's thinking "Huh? I don't remember hearing THAT in Shiphandling 101!". Then, in another scene, Lightoller apparently finds it necessary to tell him, "So don't offend anyone in First Class by blowing their brains out." Duh! (More like "D'oh!") Finally in the scene where Murdoch takes his own life, he is shown as being too stupid to even point the gun correctly. One is almost relieved when he (rather ineptly) commits suicide. It's not as bad as the way Cameron portrays him in his film, but not a true portrayal all the same. Had the real-life Murdoch been that stupid, he would have never made it onto the deck of a ship, let alone the bridge of the TITANIC.

    I also found the rape scene completely uncalled-for. I think it besmirches the memory of all the stewards who died that night. Tim Curry, as always plays a great "heavy", but he would have been enough of an SOB without raping the steerage passenger.

    Still, even with the exceptions noted above, "The TITANIC" is not a half-bad movie.
