every once in a while the conversation will turn to favorite movie . i will mention titanic and and at least a couple people will snicker . i pay them no mind because i know that five year ago and these same people be move to tear by that very movie . and theyre too embarrass now to admit it . i just rewatched titanic for the first time in a long time . expect to simply enjoy the story again and i be surprise to find that the movie have lose none of it power over these five year . i cry again . in all the same place . it bring me back to 1997 when i can remember how a movie that no one thought would break even become the most popular movie of all time . a movie that burst into the public consciousness like no other movie i can recall ( yes and even more than star war ) . and today and many people would not even admit they enjoy it . folk and let get something straight you do not look cool when you badmouth this film . you look like an out of touch cynic . no movie be perfect and this one have a few fault . some of the dialogue fall flat and and some of the plot surround the two lover come together a little too neatly . however and none of this be so distract that it ruin the film . leonardo dicaprio and kate winslet be wonderful . leo be one of the fine actor of his generation . wait til you see him in gang of new york before you call him nothing more than a pretty boy . kate winslet be so strong in this film . the movie really be hers and and she hold it together beautifully . james cameron manage what many believe be impossible by recreate a completely believable titanic . the sinking scene be horrific and just a they be that night . how anyone can say the effect be bad be beyond me . i be utterly transfixed . this film be one memorable scene after another . titanic leave port in southampton . rise and jack at the bow and fly . iceberg and right ahead . the screw hang unbelievably out of the ocean . the scream of the doomed after she go down . and that end that bring even the burly man in the theater to tear . the music and which have also be a victim of the film success and be a key ingredient . james horner score be simply perfect . and the love theme be beautiful and tragic . too bad celine dion pop song version have to destroy this great bit of music for so many . i confess and i be a titanic buff . a such and i relish the opportunity to see the ship a we never get to see it in all it beauty . perhaps watch it sink affect me more than some because i have have such an interest in the ship all my life . however and i doubt many of those i saw cry be titanic buff . i applaud cameron for bring this story to the mass in a way that never demean the tragedy . the film be make with such humanity . another reviewer say it good than i ever could represent open up your heart to titanic and and you will not be disappoint .
