I will think about the things you wrote as I watch it. (Didn't plan to watch it the day the boat set sail 100 years ago -- just turned out that way. $7 Tuesdays at the local theater. Though they'll charge a couple extra bucks for 3D.)<br /><br />Also, love the insight into the Nick I don't know. Thanks for entrusting us with it.Derek Armstronghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13750747272647975591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-22796847823445412242012-04-06T18:28:17.611-05:002012-04-06T18:28:17.611-05:00Castor: Thank you, my friend.

And I did originally plan on posting it on AM and I would still love for it to appear there in the future but I guess I just wanted this one to show up that first time on Cinema Romantico. <br /><br />Andrew: Yes! That scene you speak of says SO much! Everyone remembers the scene on the bow of the ship but they forget that scene was the bridge to it. And it's those moments so many people forget in their misguided rush to just condemn the dialogue.<br /><br />Mette: Thank you. I greatly appreciate that. <br /><br />"...and if it seems wrong some time, you have to know it'll seem right later." Yes.<br /><br />"Titanic - one of my favourite movies, and absolutely no one will ever talk me out of that."

So much love and honesty!<br /><br />... When I first saw Titanic, I was fourteen, and the character of Rose immediately appealed to me. I could just so relate to her, because I was tired of everything, life in general, you know... And I think one of the most important messages she gave us was that you have to do what you want in the moment, you just have to say yes - and if it seems wrong some time, you have to know it'll seem right later.<br />Titanic - one of my favourite movies, and absolutely no one will ever talk me out of that.Mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094234448852441633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-57464424657381350992012-04-06T08:48:19.713-05:002012-04-06T08:48:19.713-05:00Aaaaaw, Nick. AAW, NICK.
Such a fantastic post, a...Aaaaaw, Nick. <b>AAW, NICK.</b><br /><br />Such a fantastic post, and as someone who's always looking deeper and I often gloss over the deeper intricacies of Rose's character (yes, intricacies because go to hell if you think Cameron created one dimensional fools with this one.)<br /><br />Still, the Rose moment I often think of first (which is not a Winslet moment alone) is the scene where she watched the little girl folding the napkin and then old Rose narrates about how trapped she feels and Gloria nails the voiceover, Kate NAILS the sadness, Cameron nails the moment and it's such a fine encapsulation of what you're saying here.<br /><br />Great post, great movie.

Maybe someday, you will let me republish it on AM ;)<br /><br />Kate Winslet's character was also big for me, back in the days. But mostly because I developed a huge crush on her back then ahah ;)Castorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15317266954630009383noreply@blogger.com
