i be really stunned how much a film and that over 60 year old could impress me . it be nearly two hour long and there be absolutely no star in it and there be subtitle but nevertheless it be interesting and exciting to watch . what impress me mostly be the realism of the film . you could nearly feel the coldness of the ice and because you could see that the storm be real . this be a relief in a cgi world like ourdays . i wonder how much work this must have be for van dyke . i read somewhere that it take 17 month to film it . now who want to talk about titanic anymore . it a great film with a great message and i would recommend it to future director to see how great and realistic movie can be if they be only direct with realism instead of visual effect .
