TITANIC (1997): Deckchairs of the Titanic's (Yes, plural ☺️)

The first photo is a deckchair recovered from the wreck in 1912 and the second is from James Cameron's film which recently went up for auction. An example of the quality of detail in the movie.

TITANIC SEQUEL: I'm embarrassed to admit that when this video first circulated back in 2006-2007 I thought it was real! 🫣😆 I was so glad to find out it was fake.

Love that Richie Jones remix at the end, though 😎

TITANIC (1997): PERHAPS THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL SCENE IN THE MOVIE...

The death of Officer William Murdoch is perhaps the most controversial scene in the film. While there were reports of an officer committing this act, there is no conclusive evidence that the officer was Murdoch.

The portrayal in the film led to anger among Murdoch's family and prompted an apology from James Cameron. In the video below, Cameron does not apologize for portraying this moment in the film, but he does express regret for portraying the moment through Officer Murdoch rather than through an unnamed or less identifiable character.

It is also worth pointing out that Rose is not present when this occurs. Remember, the film is presented as the memory of Cameron's fictional survivor. If she was not there to witness it, then it would have had to have been something she overheard or read about later.

To me, this detail appears to have been Cameron's way of leaving space between what can be confirmed and what remains uncertain. If that was his intention, however, it ultimately failed because the detail often goes unnoticed, and viewers tend to accept Murdoch's fate as a conclusive historical fact.

Some of the words and descriptions in the newspaper articles are redacted for younger viewers.

TITANIC (1997): Was the water during filming REALLY cold? 🤔

YES! During the vast majority of filming, the water was very cold! 🥶 Ironically, the scenes after the ship sank were some of the only times the water could be comfortably warmed. This is because they used a smaller location to film them.

Water temperature the night Titanic sank = 28 degrees
Water temperature during the filming of Titanic = 60 degrees
And, for those interested in other sea disasters...
Water temperature when RMS Lusitania sank = 50–55 degrees (estimates vary)

TITANIC (1997): DID CAL REALLY THINK HE DIDN’T HAVE TO FOLLOW THE RULES?

We see a lot of cigarette smoking in the film in just about every area of the ship... Jack smokes, Bruce Ismay smokes, even Rose smokes! Yet, we never see them — nor any other passenger — smoking in the First Class Dining Saloon. Why? Because, as the channel Titanic Honor & Glory points out, smoking was not allowed in the dining saloon.

Only one passenger appears to attempt it, and that’s Cal. But Cal never lights the cigarette, and what appears to be an ashtray in front of him (which, if so, appears to be the only one in the room) goes unused.

I guess it’s safe to assume that one of the dining room staff may have given Cal a reminder 🚭 And, assuming that’s an ashtray, the saloon steward who brought it to him probably got a reminder, too! 😠

Jack, Rose, Bruce Ismay, and all the other smokers in the room minded their manners... Why couldn’t Cal? 🤷‍♂️
