Deep–sea explorer Brock Lovett has reached the most famous shipwreck of all — the Titanic. Emerging with a safe believed to contain a diamond called “The Heart of the Ocean,” he discovers the safe holds only a drawing of a beautiful woman wearing it. A 100–year–old woman named Rose Calvert living in Michigan recognises the woman in the drawing — herself!

On a visit to Brock's explorer ship over the wreck, Rose tells her story of the Titanic and its ill–fated voyage. Unhappily engaged to a steel magnate, Caledon Hockley, she boards the Titanic's first–class suites with him and her mother in Southampton.

Also boarding are Jack Dawson after a lucky poker game wins him tickets in steerage. When Rose attempts suicide by jumping off the stern in 3rd class, Jack pulls her back onto the ship ... and a bond is forged between them as Jack is invited by her into First Class the following day. Rose's mother and Cal try desperate measures to keep them apart.

Then the Titanic collides with an iceberg and begins to sink — despite being proclaimed “unsinkable.” Now Rose and Jack must fight to stay alive. (IMDb)

The highest grossing film in history!
