I DID refuse to see "Titanic"--couldn't take what I had heard on the
liberties with the story (a friend of mine who went to see it with her teenaged
daughter found the leads so obnoxious that she was rooting for the North
Atlantic). I think "A Night to Remember" tried to get the story right, but I haven't
seen it in years, so I might hate it now.
I went to "Titanic" to see all the CGI they did with the ship. For all
of the cheezy storylines, the research they did into the actual sinking
was quite well done. The ship broke where it was supposed to break and
did more or less what the current research was saying it did. I was
just eating up all of the scenery--the dining rooms, the staircases, the
staterooms, even the 3rd class areas. And the reciprocating engine
shots in IMAX were worth the price of admission themselves. (And no,
Leo isn't scenery. I'm much more of a Ralph Fiennes type.)
"A Night to Remember" was quite well done, especially for the time. It
was quite closely based on Walter Lord's book.
