Titanic

I just watched  the 3D movie of Titanic and I had to admit, it was a real experience. Even though I had watched that movie so many time on my own TV, it gave a more grasping experience as to what it was really like for those people 100 years ago. I cried even before they got too the sad scene because what went through my head again and again was that "That sort of tragedy actually happened." Can you believe it all happened on 15th April 1912? After a bit of researching, there was actually a man name Jack Dawson that died on Titanic. A cheery women with the title "Unsinkable Molly Brown". A band member that had played his last hymn "Autumn" as Titanic sanked, named Wallace Hartley. I admired both Molly and Wallace spirit as Titanic sank. Especially Wallace because he tried to calmed people or even my view, played everyone's last song like a funeral but in the most subtle and caring matter that it didn't seem regretful. I salute you guys for that.


The movie also not only emphasize on how people wanted so much to live with scenes of punching some of the employees their meaningless orders of staying behind or money being used to trifle a space on the boat but also how people accepted death and decides they held their pride and let others be saved. How gentlemen decided to be in their best tux and to die as gentlemen. How fathers and lovers fight for both children and women to be saved despite the heart wrenching farewell they had to do.


It was also sad at how the ship were expected to be the ship of dreams to those people. That it was built for a happy purpose, though with the unnecessary categorizing of class. Whether they were bad or good, they all had dream. To live even better at New York. To have had a huge loss at all those chances was something my mind could not comprehend to have accept nor for my heart to bear.I often dream of walking down Titanic's smooth wooden floor. Walking the famous Grand Staircase that had a beautiful domed-shaped ceiling that will make you in awe of it. Listening to the small clinks and clanks of new porcelain dishes.


I am so grateful for James Cameron for writing and directing Titanic as well as able to connect loads of the real facts about the real Titanic. His dedication to rebuilding Titanic to resemble it as close as the original is something far more than just commendable and to make sure it delivers a realistic hold on its audience was something I shall always admire. The moving romance between Rose and Jack is something I will forever learn from as to never give up on something that is worth myself to never let go. (The pic above is my favorite lines from the film). Especially Jack always positive thinking of the unexpected of Life itself. The way he saved Rose in every way a person can be saved. 


I'm dedicating this post to the one thousand five hundred and seventeen lives that were lost. Many of the survivors have as well passed on, as well as the last survivor of Titanic, Millvina Dean, who had died at the age of 97 years old. I do not hope for Titanic to be seen as something that was a horrible ship, just the tragic disaster that had come upon it. I like think it was a magnificent ship that knows forever sleeps deep within Ocean's depths. 


Rest in peace people of Titanic, you shall be remembered as time stretches to its end.
