The human nature of the “titanic”
There is a film which won the Best Picture,among 11 other Oscars .It gained 1.8 billion at the box office all over the world,and shows its high class quality in gorgeous costuming,breathtaking scenery,and incredible underwater photography .It’s definitely Titanic!To watch the film again ,my soul has been shocked all the time .Let’s review the most excellent movie which I like.
The great ship,Titanic,sailed for New York from Southampton on April 10th,1912.She was carrying 1,316 passengers and crew of 891.At the time,however,she was not only the largest ship that had ever been built,but was regarded as unsinkable .Young Rose(Kate Winslet) is a daughter of high society members who travels on the Titanic in expectation of being married to a haughty but well-off young man (Billy Zane).Becoming more and more desperate in anticipation of her unwanted fate,Rose finds herself falling in love with poor artist Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) who won his way onto the Titanic in a card game.When the great ship strikes an iceberg and begins to sink,Rose and Jack have only each other as the world around them falls apart.The tragic sinking of this great liner will always be remembered,for she went down on her first voyage with heavy loss of life.
The most impressed me is the human nature uncovered in this film,can be thought of from both negative and positive aspects.I will first elucidate some gloomy characteristics revealed by the film.The first impressive characteristic may be that the fiancé of Rose,Karl would gain his ends by fair means or foul.When he noticed that Rose has obliquity with Jack,he took out the necklace with a diamond of 56 carats named “the heart of the ocean”,to request Rose not to leave him.He knows that Rose doesn’t love him,but he chose to use money to keep Rose with him.Another negative social mood of that time exposed by the film is vanity.When Jack wearing a suit borrowed from a woman to attend the dinner invited by Karl,he was respected by other guests.However,when he wore his own clothes maybe a little bit shabby,and tried to enter the ballroom to look for Rose,he was driven out by the two guards outside the ballroom.The two respondences depending on Jack’s appearance contrasted sharply,and really very shocking for us to imagine a society like that.
Anyway,there are some brilliant aspects of human nature showed in this film.There is love,bravery,faith,and beliefs existing at the scene.The presence of love was impenetrated through the whole film.The love is not only expressed between Jack and Rose,but also exists among the families.When the water was poured into the ship,when men are forced to be obstructed from their wives and children,an old couple held each other tightly in the bed; a father comforted his daughter he will just leave her for a while,just a little while… When Titanic was sinking,some musicians were performing pieces of music,some disciples were praying to Virgin Mary around the priest on their knees…
In conclusion,the film of “Titanic” is not simply an affectional story between Jack and Rose.It shows more than love.The wreck of Titanic represents the collapse of the Capitalism,which is considered “unsinkable” by most people.The film also shows different aspects of human nature.Some people own strong vainglory,while some other possess much of love; still others are rich in firm faith and beliefs.We should always keep in mind that,no matter how enormous the calamity is,no matter how defective the people are,we should believe there are always more virtue than vice in the world.
