Young Jack Dawson and Ruth David-Kate met on the Titanic luxury liner traveling from England to the United States and were set to elope upon arrival. Unfortunately, the liner hit an iceberg and sank en route.
Mention the movie, a thought in addition to the thrilling scenes, touching love, fascinating storyline, leaving me the deepest impression, is the eyes of Ruth. That on the edge of life and death, but no despair in the eyes.
People are so small in front of death. So, the extreme panic, and therefore produce all kinds of ugly behavior will all show at a glance: in order to survive, some people in the surface of the sea will be other people's head to drown in the water, they rely on this floating in the sea; in order to board the lifeboat women, children priority, a man with money to buy through the crew; in order to protect their own safety, can take more than 70 people on a lifeboat only carries a dozen people, and the boat is worried about their own lives, but did not want to go to the rescue of the lifeboat. In order to protect their own safety, the lifeboat can carry more than 70 people, but only a dozen people, and the people on board, fearing for their own lives, are unwilling to save the many people in distress on the passenger ship, including their relatives. How abominable and realistic these phenomena are. However, the good in human nature is always more than the ugly: most of the men to comply with the system, will be his wife, children sent to the ship of hope, he stayed on the Titanic; calm and collected crew members ready to die in the line of duty, the arrangement of the passengers to board the lifeboat in an orderly manner; when the ship is tilted, people have to slide backward, some people hug the pillar, the other hand to pull the other hand; when the film of the two protagonists were Sweeping seawater chase, but saw an unattended child overwhelmed crying, resolutely pick up that child, take him to escape together ...... These, is the face of life and death decision, noble spirit and noble practice.
There are many touching details, all show the treatment of death calm and calm: third-class cabin in the young mother knows that the hope of survival is as slim as a phantom, they speak a beautiful fairy tale to make the child sleep peacefully; the elderly couple tears gently embraced each other, peacefully lying on the bed waiting for the God of Death to come down; the ship's players pulling a mournful music in the tail end of the life of a last time Cooperation; the elderly captain into the captain's office, chose to give the last moment of his life to this into his life's greatest passion and splendor of the place; heroine Ruth does not want to be separated from Jack, in the lifeboat down, bravely jumped on the window of the Titanic. For her, the significance of life far exceeds the lingering of life.
Ruth had an inner monologue that went something like this: "My life was forever occupied by tedium. Endless dinners, dances, horse races, rowing, socializing with just a few people. No one really cares about me. I felt like I was standing on the edge of a high cliff, unable to turn back." When Ruth's father died, there was little left of the family fortune that Ruth owned. Her mother's efforts to get her daughter to marry the son of a wealthy man forced her to continue to live the life of a lady in the pandemonium of the upper class social circles that flattered each other and worshipped money. It was like she was sitting on a swing, swinging high in the air, when her heart suddenly emptied out, very, very empty. So she chooses to jump overboard, but is rescued by Jack, who also rescues her heart. He talks bravely at the first-class dinner about his idea of "enjoying every day". And he takes Ruth to the uninhibited, sincere, and enthusiastic third-class party to have a good time. He gives Ruth a taste of the full, happy civilian life and shows her what life is all about.
Jack is a tenacious, optimistic person, and this spirit of his infected Ruth. After the sinking of the Titanic, Ruth and Jack found a raft. After a thrilling, grueling escape, they are exhausted by exhaustion and cold at sea. Determination to live kept them talking, and only by talking incessantly could they survive. A sky full of stars twinkled in the night sky, it should have been a romantic night, but instead one of the worst shipwrecks in history took place. In addition to the 705 people rescued, 1,515 suffered. A swarm of bodies in life jackets floated on the surface of the North Atlantic. Only one lifeboat came back to rescue them. The searchlight lights of the crew went back and forth across the sea looking for the living. A freezing Ruth saw a ray of hope and was filled with joy as she tried to wake Jack. But her cries seemed so pale and feeble, Jack was in a deep sleep and was unable to wake up. Ruth's hot tears slipped over her cold face. The lifeboat was now sailing away into the distance. With a pained look in her eyes Ruth lowered Jack's body into the ocean and shivered as she climbed off the raft - she had a promise to keep, she had promised Jack he would live. "Comeback, comeback, comeback ......" Ruth's feeble call was accompanied by a determined look, a look of unbridled determination, containing an infinite thirst for life, as she struggled desperately on the brink of despair and She was struggling desperately on the edge of despair, tenaciously fighting death. She must board the lifeboat, otherwise she will be swallowed up by the endless darkness and the silence of death, her soul will melt in the biting cold water of the North Atlantic. She was not going to lose her life just after she had realized its meaning; she was not going to break the promise she had made with her own lips. Trembling, she swam to one of the dead crew members, took the whistle he was hanging, and blew it with all her strength, her love of life, her attachment to everything in the world, and her fondness for all that is good. God heard her devout prayers, the lifeboat reversed direction, toward the whistle sounded. The bright light of the searchlight shone on Ruth's strong face, and she finally drifted off to sleep under the warm blankets of the lifeboat. When she opened her eyes, she saw the soft glow of the rising sun. The darkness passed.
"Titanic" gave me too many feelings. I remember watching the movie five years ago and being blown away by the thrilling scenes and occasionally leaving a line of footprints on the soft sands of my heart. But now, it is completely moved by it, and it is also y imprinted into the memory. Even in the New Year's Eve fireworks, see the fireworks in the dark night sky rising, blooming, and then fall, will recall the Titanic shipwreck, the captain issued a distress signal. Fireworks also rise to the vast starry sky, bloom, and fall to the boundless sea. And the ship's innocent little girl saw the beautiful fireworks and smiled happily. I still feel heartbroken when I think about it.
People's feelings will always grow with age and more and more deep, as five years ago I only "Titanic" as a thriller, but now it is y moved. Five years later, ten years later ...... I will definitely get more and more feelings from this classic movie.
