Titanic (1997)
Titanic is the 1997 blockbuster romantic/disaster epic based on the events surrounding the sinking of the legendary "unsinkable" vessel. Flashing back to the past and forward to the present, the film primarily follows the stories of the well-to-do and somewhat timid Rose and the poor but lively Jack, star-crossed lovers who meet aboard the doomed ship. In addition, the film tells true and fictionalized accounts of the passengers of the RMS Titanic, with an older Rose recounting her tale to the crew of a research ship.

Summary
A seventeen-year-old aristocrat falls in love with a kind but poor artist aboard the luxurious, ill-fated R.M.S. Titanic. This is based on the real-life disaster, though its main characters and story are entirely fictional. Originally pegged to be an unmitigated disaster due to its soaring production costs, Titanic went on to become one of the most successful films ever-made. It broke box office records, grossing $600.7 million in its original domestic run, and tied an Academy record by taking home 11 Oscars - including Best Picture and Best Director for James Cameron. It earned a total of 14 nominations, losing only Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Makeup.
