Titanic 1997 mistakes

[Cam Houseman]

Hi, Maria,

I would love to see your posts in other threads than this one. I think your perspective on other topics (after studying them first of course) would bring a breath of fresh air to the other threads. Would love to know what you think of Kate Phillips and Henry Morley's love story, or of the self-sacrifice of Stella Sage, or Ida Strauss. Maybe you'd be interested in the story of the REAL J. Dawson, or who "Molly" Brown really was? Anyway, you seem oriented to people-stories as much as myself, so I'd like to branch out and converse with you on other threads and other subjects. Young minds are exciting when they discover new things.

I think if Cameron's film was anti-British; "A Night To Remember" was anti-American; the 1943 German "Titanic" was anti-British AND anti-American.

do you think it was anti-british?

As I mentioned in another post, years ago there was a "Nit-Pick" website.
The 1997 "Titanic" led the list in numbers of them by far.

Hello, everyone! I found this article on the internet written by a man named Paul Lee that lists every historical mistake that the author found while watching James Cameron's Titanic. I find it very interesting. If anyone's interested, here's the link: http://www.paullee.com/titanic/jc1997goofs.html

There was a "Nit Picker's" website several.years ago. The 1997 "Titanic" held the record for the most....I think it was something like 277.

One nitpick on Paul Lee's nitpick.
Comment on Fabrizio. How could you tell, apparently just from his appearance whether he was an Italian or just an American who was a member of a family who had come from Italy ?
In our division on the ship on which I was stationed , there was a member of the group who had an Italian surname but was definitely American. He mentioned his parents had come to America from Sicily.

I think the 1943 German "Titanic" was definitely a propaganda film and was definitely anti-British as well as anti-American.
