Than when age grew up i watch the film again & again and understood the depth of the meaning of love in it and thelve b/w Jack & Rose than i read abt the incident that brought tears in my eyes when reading. The book had more details than the film though how overconfidence and arrogance just took away so many lives in that frozen night in the middle of the Atlantic Frozen Ocean. If only they had enough life jackets and boats and destroy their arrogance and ego that Titanic will never sink,lives would have been saved there were many people who went back to the ship to save lives. There were rumours too that another ship was nearby Titanic but signal did not went till morning. One frozen night changed everything. The book was a interesting read
I haven't read the book. But even while watching the movie, I wanted to bang the heads of officials making stupid decisions, due to which the ship sank and so many people died.
Not having enough lifeboats was a recipe for disaster from the start. If they thought the ship is unsinkable they won't have put any lifeboats at all. Of course it can sink. They just didn't put enough lifeboats to give first class passengers a better view. They didn't even have enough lifejackets so according to them, the people who can't swim can just go fuck themselves.
They also didn't fill the lifeboats to their full occupancy, because Lightoller misunderstood Smith's command of "women and children first" to "women and children only". This is at least understandable considering it was a panic situation and nobody was in their right minds.
Also the lookouts getting distracted by Jack and Rose and not seeing the iceberg, which I know didn't happen in real. There's one blunder after another which caused the deaths of so many people. At least people learnt a big lesson by this disaster and from then on sufficient lifeboats were put on every ship.
