This movie portrays how a society based on money = power really function in sticky situation. It gives a fair picture of how unfair this system can work. Along with being a realistic and believable movie, James Cameron manages to hold the audience's attention by evolving the movie and the historic happenings around the beautiful love story that occurs between Rose and Jack. Although the ending might seem unfair (I think I cried my heart out), the moral is that unless you are willing to let go of "the safe solution" in life you will never be able to gain something better. She did. A wonderful movie that will make you laugh, boil with anger, cry, shake your head - you name it. It is absolutely a "must-see" movie, that surely will make you think. If you take away the special effects from this movie, you still have the greatest film ever made. Usually, with big budget eyeball movies, nothing much is top notch outside of the special effects. But personally, from the moment that Rose Dewitt-Bukater steps out of her car, she captivates all eyes in the audience. She is the movie star of her time, and she was robbed of the Best Actress Oscar. All of the other actors around her shine also, including Billy Zane, who is an amazing villain, Frances Fisher, Leonardo DiCaprio, and all of the other wonderful actors in this film, give the greatest performances for a film full of love, passion, and heartache.
