the criterion collection 7#

The switching of the lens shows the completion of the ship very heavy and has a fate foretelling taste.

The typical structure of a disaster film, multiple characters and multiple processes, the core is a common event.

In the eyes of contemporary audiences who have been fed by a lot of special effects, this film is probably a bit dull and unsurprising. Although the method of performance has not changed much.

A Night to Remember quotes

  • Assistant Wireless Operator Harold Bride: [Bride is awakened by the din on deck following the collision] What's up?

    Wireless Operator John 'Jack' Phillips: Ahhhh. We're stopped and blowing off steam. Something's wrong, I don't know what. Run into a bit of ice, I think.

  • Wireless Operator Cyril Evans: Hear it?

    [hands Groves his headphones]

    Wireless Operator Cyril Evans: That's the "Titanic".

    Third Officer Charles Groves: [listens then gives the headphones back to Evans] What's she saying?

    Third Officer Charles Groves: "Best wishes to Joe and Hattie. Wish you were here. See you Wednesday. Love Myra and Bill". Private stuff. Yes, there must be a lot of money on that ship. He's been at it the best part of the day.
