  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY JAMES CAMERON 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Titanic (1997), directed by James Cameron, is an epic romance and disaster film set aboard the ill-fated RMS Titanic. The story follows Rose, a young woman from an aristocratic family, and Jack, a poor artist, who fall in love during the ship’s maiden voyage in 1912. Their love story unfolds against the backdrop of class division and the impending disaster. The film explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the human spirit, while juxtaposing the romance with the historical tragedy of the Titanic's sinking. With stunning visuals and an emotional narrative, Titanic remains a cinematic landmark. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “After learning she would be required to be naked in front of Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet decided to lighten the mood by flashing him when they first met.” 
    
  “In the scene where water rushes into the Grand Staircase room, the filmmakers only had one chance to film it, as the entire set and its furnishings were going to be destroyed.” 
    
  “The movie's scenes set in 1912, which make up the entire movie except for the present-day scenes and credits, last exactly two hours and forty minutes — the exact duration it took for the Titanic to sink. The collision with the iceberg lasts 37 seconds, mirroring the actual event.”
