The tragedyThe legacy
The love story
Titanic is an American epic romantic disaster film directed, written, co-produced, and
co-edited by James Cameron. A fictionalized account of the sinking of the RMS Titanic, it stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet as members of different social classes who fall in love aboard the ship during its ill-fated maiden voyage. Upon its release on December 19, 1997, the film achieved critical and commercial success. It equaled records with fourteen Academy Award nominations and eleven wins, receiving the prizes for Best Picture and Best Director. The film was re-released theatrically in 3D on April 4, 2012 to commemorate the centenary of the tragedy.
Chatelaine/April 2012
The story could not have been written better. The juxtaposition
of rich and poor, the gender roles played out unto death...and
above all the lesson: that life is uncertain, the future unknowable,
the unthinkable possible.
—James Cameron

Initial ReleaseCameron’s inspiration for the film was predicated on his fascination with shipwrecks; he wanted to convey the emotional message of the tragedy, and felt that a love story interspersed with the human loss would be essential to achieving this. Production on the film began in 1995, when Cameron shot footage of the actual Titanic wreck. The modern scenes were shot on board the Akademik Mstislav Keldysh, which Cameron had used as a base when filming the wreck. A reconstruction of the Titanic was built at Playas de Rosarito, Baja California, and scale models and computer-generated imagery were also used to recreate the sinking. The film was partially funded by Paramount Pictures and 20th Century Fox, and, at the time, was the most expensive film ever made, with an estimated budget of $200 million.
20th Century Fox and Paramount Pictures co-financed Titanic, with Paramount handling the North American distribution and Fox handling the international release. The film premiered on November 1, 1997, at the Tokyo International Film Festival, where reaction was
described as “tepid” by The New York Times. However, positive reviews started to appear back in the United States; the official Hollywood premiere occurred on December 14, 1997, where “the big movie stars who attended the opening were enthusiastically gushing about the film to the world media”.
The film received steady attendance after opening in North America on Friday, December 19, 1997. By the end of that same weekend, theaters were beginning to sell out. The film earned $8,658,814 on its opening day and $28,638,131 over the opening weekend from 2,674 theaters, averaging to about $10,710 per venue, and ranking number one at the box office, ahead of the eighteenth James Bond film, Tomorrow Never Dies. By New Year’s Day, Titanic had made over $120 million, had increased in popularity and theaters continued to sell out. Its biggest single day took place on Valentine’s Day of 1998, making $13,048,711, more than six weeks after it debuted in North America. It stayed at number one for fifteen consecutive weeks in the United States and Canada, which remains a record for any film. By March 1998, it was the first film to earn more than $1 billion worldwide. The film stayed in theaters in North America for almost ten months, before finally closing on Thursday, October 1, 1998 with a final domestic gross of $600,788,188. The film made double its domestic amount overseas, generating an international gross of $1,242,413,080 and accumulating a grand total of $1,843,201,268 worldwide. It became the highest-grossing film in history, and remained so for twelve years, until Avatar, also written and directed by Cameron, surpassed it in 2010.
Titanic won the 1997 Academy Award for Best Original Song, as well as three Grammy Awards for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or Television. The film’s soundtrack became the best-selling primarily orchestral soundtrack of all time, and became a worldwide success, spending sixteen weeks at number-one in the United States, and was certified diamond for over eleven million copies sold in the United States alone. The soundtrack also became the best-selling album of 1998 in the U.S. Celine Dion’s, “My Heart Will Go On”, won the Grammy Awards for Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or for Television. The film also won Best Male Performance for Leonardo DiCaprio and Best Movie at the MTV Movie Awards, Best Film at the People’s Choice Awards, and Favorite Movie at the 1998 Kids’ Choice Awards. It won various awards outside the United States, including the Awards of the Japanese Academy as the Best Foreign Film of the Year. Titanic eventually won nearly ninety awards and had an additional forty-seven nominations from various award-giving bodies around the world. Furthermore, the book about the making of the film was at the top of The New York Times’ bestseller list for several weeks, which was “the first time that such a tie-in book had achieved this status”.
3D Re-releaseA 2012 re-release of Titanic in 3D was created by re-mastering the original as 4K resolution and post-converting to 3D stereoscopic format. The 3D version took 60 weeks and $18 million to produce, including the 4K restoration. Digital 2D and in 2D IMAX versions were also struck from the new 4K master created in the process. The only scene entirely redone for the re-release was Rose’s view of the night sky at sea, on the morning of April 15, 1912. The scene was replaced with an accurate view of the night-sky star pattern, including the Milky Way, adjusted for the location in the North Atlantic Ocean in April 1912. The change was prompted by astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, who sent Cameron a corrected view of the sky, which was the basis of the new scene.
The 3D version of Titanic premiered at the Royal Albert Hall in London on March 27, 2012, with James Cameron and Kate Winslet in attendance. It entered release on April 4, 2012, six days shy of the centenary of Titanic embarking upon her maiden voyage.
Rolling Stone film critic Peter Travers rated the reissue 3.5 stars out of 4 explaining that “the 3D intensifies Titanic. You are there. Caught up like never before in an intimate epic that earns its place in the movie time capsule.” Writing for Entertainment Weekly, Owen Gleiberman gave the film an A grade. He wrote, “For once, the visuals in a 3-D movie don’t look darkened or distracting. They look sensationally crisp and alive.” However, Richard Corliss of Time who was very critical in 1997 remained in the same mood, “I had pretty much the same reaction:
AccoladesTitanic began its awards sweep starting with the Golden Globes, winning four, namely Best Motion Picture (Drama), Best Director, Best Original Score, and Best Song. Kate Winslet and Gloria Stuart were also nominees, but lost.It won the ACE “Eddie” Award, ASC Award, Art Directors Guild Award, Cinema Audio Society Awards, Screen Actors Guild Award (Best Supporting Actress for Gloria Stuart), The Directors Guild of America Award, and Broadcast Film Critics Association Award (Best Director for James Cameron), and The Producer Guild of America Award. It was also nominated for ten BAFTA awards, including Best Film and Best Director.
The film garnered fourteen Academy Awards nominations, tying the record set in 1950 by All About Eve and won eleven, including the Best Picture and Best Director. It also picked up the awards for Best Cinematography, Best Costume Design, Best Visual Effects, Best Sound, Best Sound Effects Editing, Best Original Dramatic Score, Best Film Editing, Best Original Song, and Best Art Direction. Kate Winslet, Gloria Stuart and the make-up artists were the three nominees that did not win. James Cameron’s original screenplay and Leonardo DiCaprio were not nominees. It was the second film to win eleven Academy Awards, after Ben-Hur.
fitfully awed, mostly water-logged.” In regards to the 3D effects, he noted the “careful conversion to 3D lends volume and impact to certain moments ... [but] in separating the foreground and background of each scene, the converters have carved the visual field into discrete, not organic, levels.” Ann Hornaday for The Washington Post found herself asking “whether the film’s twin values of humanism and spectacle are enhanced by Cameron’s 3-D conversion, and the answer to that is: They aren’t.” She further added that the “3-D conversion creates distance where there should be intimacy, not to mention odd moments in framing and composition.”
The film grossed an estimated $4.4 million on the first day of its re-release and made $17.3 million over the Easter weekend, finishing in third place behind The Hunger Games and American Reunion at the North American box-office. In China, it debuted with an $11.6 million opening day—more than double its gross in any other territory—giving Fox its best ever opening in the Chinese market. To date, it has earned $29.7 million in North America and $53 million overseas, for a global total of $82.7 million.
