101-year-old Rose DeWitt Bukater tells the story of her life aboard the Titanic, 84 years later. A young Rose boards the ship with her mother and fiancé. Meanwhile, Jack Dawson and Fabrizio De Rossi win third-class tickets aboard the ship. Rose tells the whole story from Titanic's departure through to its death—on its first and last voyage—on April 15, 1912.
Production
They built a 90% scale ship. James Cameron is unhinged.
Costume
Rose's red 'jump dress' — costume design as character development.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
James Cameron drew Rose's nude portrait himself — those are his hands sketching. He also went on 12 deep-sea dives to the actual wreck.
'My Heart Will Go On' was initially rejected. Cameron hated it. Now it's impossible to hear without picturing foggy bow poses.
