The approximate cost to make the movie, Titanic, was $200 million,
while it would cost about $123 million in today's dollars to
build the ship. |
47 elephants and dancing bears survived the sinking of the
Titanic and got jobs in New York thereafter. |
The last photograph of the Titanic was taken by Fr. Brown from
Queenstown (now Cobh) pier in County Cork. Fr Brown disembarked
at Cobh but was asked to stay on until America. His Jesuit
seniors refused him permission and Fr. Brown went on to become
a world famous photographer during the Great War and the years
following it. |
In the movie of the Titanic, when Jack walks through the french
doors for dinner with Rose and her family, a camera man's reflection
can be seen on the glass. |
In the movie of the Titanic, Jack Dawson said that he learned
some of his sense of seamanshiip near his home near Chippewa
Falls, Wisconsin, on Lake Wissota. Trouble is, Lake Wissota
was not even there until 1917, five years after the Titanic
hit bottom. |
In the movie of the Titanic, Captain Smith is wearing contact
lenses. Rose's collection of paintings include very famous
pieces that were never on the Titanic (Monet's Water Lilies
and Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon). The verses they sing
at the worship service weren't added to the hymn until around
1937. Molly Brown wasn't called Molly until after she was rescued.
When Rose's picture is being drawn, the artist is left-handed,
but they show Jack as being right-handed. (James Cameron drew
the picture). |
Two dogs survived the sinking of Titanic, yes that's right,
two DOGS survived. They escaped on early lifeboats carrying
so few people that no one objected. Miss Margaret Hays of New
York brought her Pomeranian with her in lifeboat No. 7, while
Henry Sleeper Harper of the publishing family boarded boat
No. 3 with his Pekinese, Sun Yat Sen. |
In the movie, a man with a yellow shirt and a black moustache
fell off the boat and drowned. Five minutes later the same
exact man was seen playing the violin with two other men.
