Titanic 





Titanic is a 1997 film written,  produced and directed by James Cameron about the sinking of the liner RMS Titanic.  It stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet as Jack Dawson and Rose DeWitt Bukater,  respectively, members of different social classes who fall in love during the fateful maiden voyage of the ship in 1912. The film co-starring Billy Zane who plays Nathan Caledon Hockley, Rose's fiance, Bill Paxton plays Brock Lovett that, expedition leader of a modern treasure hunters and Gloria Stuart, who plays the elderly Rose, in the 1996.


The main characters and the love story are fictional, but many of the secondary characters (such as crew members and some of the passengers in first and second class) are based on real historical figures, as well as shots of the real Titanic sunk bottom of the Atlantic in that open the film.

The film was a huge critical and commercial success, winning 11 Oscars, including Best Picture, and became the highest grossing film of all time until 2010 was surpassed by the film Avatar which was also directed by James Cameron. Despite having been overcome, to date collection remains a figure that with the exception of any film Avatar has achieved.




Main characters



- Jack Dawson: An attractive young painter of 20 years, despite their economic situation has traveled to many parts of the world. Wins his third-class passage on the Titanic in a poker game. Once there is captivated by the beauty of Rose and, later in the film, portrayed naked.


  Meet when Jack saves him from a suicide attempt, a feat that lets you mix in a first class dinner and show that despite being poor is very intelligent, clever and witty. He died of hypothermia in the sinking, but not take a promise to Rose that will fight for survival and kiss her one last time.

-  Rose DeWitt Bukater:  A girl of 17 years of age traveling in First Class. Caledon Hockley is committed to Nathan, but I love it. Just wanted to marry his mother's obligation, because otherwise it would be in the street. When she meets Jack falls in love with him and let Cal is a survivor of the Titanic. After the fall, she rebuilt her life and changes her name to Rose Dawson. She was an actress, married and had two children, but never forgot his true love, Jack Dawson.

I chose this movie because it's one of my favorite movies for the plot presented in the course of history, although it is a movie of love also generates a lot of sadness about the outcome.

50 First Dates is a romantic comedy which I recommend seeing this movie about love between a teacher and a veterinarian, which the woman suffers from amnesia disease that is caused by an accident. This is almost an impossible love and every day she forgets who is "The" and the man who conquered tene daily to win her love every day.
