titanicthe movie that James Cameron directed about the history of the most famous ocean liner in history, will be 25 years old. In all those years, the film has sparked a debate among fans that has not been able to be resolved: Would Jack have fit in the door?
Thousands of moviegoers have had the conversation about whether the character of Leonardo Dicaprio could have climbed on the door that saved his love interest, the unhappy heiress of Kate WinsletRose DeWitt Bukater.
spoiler warning from a movie that came out in 1997: Jack Dawson froze to death in the North Atlantic after the Titanic sank. Her love Rose of hers is saved from her because he lets her stand out of the water in a floating door.
It seems like a very trivial thing, but James Cameron, who wrote the screenplay for the film, is fed up with this debate.
James Cameron is fed up with the debate
During an interview to promote his new movie Avatar: The Way of Waterthe director told the Toronto Sun that he has conducted “a scientific study to put an end to all this and drive a stake through his heart once and for all.” The filmmaker will use this material to clarify why Jack could not be saved in a new documentary.
“We have done a thorough forensic analysis with a hypothermia expert who reproduced the raft from the movie and we are going to do a little special that will be released in February. We took two specialists who had the same body mass as Kate and Leo and we put sensors all over and inside them and put them in ice cold water and tested to see if they could have survived through a variety of methods and the answer was , there was no way that both of them could have survived. Only one could survive,” Cameron said.
The director at the end remarked that titanic is “a film about love, sacrifice and mortality. Love is measured by sacrifice” for which Jack “had to die.”
It is expected that titanic returns to theaters in February to celebrate its anniversary at the same time as the documentary on the death of Jack Dawson airs on NatGeo.
