Much better than Cameron's version

This is the real classic. Cameron's version is to render the vigorous love, this version of the 50s is even more shocking.

Wearing a gown on the Titanic, you must die calmly and noble, knowing that it is a wife and children farewell, and finally giving up the spirit of escaping, letting women and children go first, usually so delicate that after arriving in the lifeboat, she is brave and methodical like a lady warrior. The captain of, the second mate who insisted on fighting till the last minute, even if no one listened to the band playing on the deck when the passengers fled frantically, the old man who finally sank into the deep sea with the lost child in his arms, the fuel tank Workers working in China insist that there are no correspondents who cannot communicate. Every character is vividly portrayed and impressive.

Of course, there are also some disgusting things. The control of third-class passengers prevents them from escaping first. Know that no one's life is particularly precious. Disorganized third-class warehouses. The Californian could see the light but was indifferent. Helplessness and despair when the last rocket ran out.

It is a black-and-white film, and Bingberg is also very rough, and the dubbing of the translation still has a strong dubbing tone, which can still capture the hearts of the audience. Of course, there are some remarkable parts of the picture. The luxurious ladies' clothes, the exaggerated and complicated hats with feathers and laces in the 1950s, the luxurious fur, and the upper-class gentleman who always straightens the chest.
