Saving The Titanic

Another Titanic tale

If you're like me and have no interest in the re-release of James Cameron's Titanic in 3D (we all know it wasn't filmed in 3D) then consider Saving the Titanic for a fresh angle on the infamous, oceanic disaster. Saving the Titanic focuses on the ship's crew deep in the bowels of the vessel, who selflessly sacrifice their lives to keep Titanic afloat for as long as they can in order to allow as many passengers to get off safely. The movie is a hybrid of a documentary and a drama. Moments of scripted dialogue of actual-event-reenactments are shown with occasional scenes of animated diagrams of the ships anatomy with a narrator describing what viewers are seeing. Although there are no household names as far as the actors go, the acting is top notch.
