Die letzte Nacht der Titanic (1958)
27KDie letzte Nacht der Titanic: Directed by Roy Ward Baker. With Kenneth More, Ronald Allen, Robert Ayres, Honor Blackman. On its maiden voyage in April 1912, the supposedly unsinkable RMS Titanic hits an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean.
“Iu0026#39;ve seen several film versions of the Titanic tragedy (Iu0026#39;m something of a buff–Iu0026#39;m distantly related to Mr. u0026amp; Mrs. Edwin Kimball, who were 1st class passengers!) u0026quot;A Night to Rememberu0026quot; is still the best, no contest. The effects are 1958 state-of-the-art, the script was meticulously researched, and the people are actually written and played as 1912 people (James Cameronu0026#39;s cast were a bit too much 1990u0026#39;s to be convincing). Even those characters who are slightly fictionalized (the u0026quot;ladyu0026quot; who represents–without mentioning–Lady Cosmo Duff-Gordon, and u0026quot;my dear sonu0026quot; and his family, for examples) behave as their real life counterparts would have in 1912, giving the film a documentary feel without failing to give the viewer people to identify with and care about. This is classic film-making at its finest!”
