The movie Titanic is a drama/disaster film directed by James Cameron. The movie was released on December 19, 1997. Everyone has seen Titanic because of how amazing it is. A lot of people love to watch drama and love stories even though it became a sad at the end of the movie when everything starts going bad.

            

           This movie has a lot going on in it. It is about how these two people fall in love on this ship that eventually hits an iceberg and sinks. The two people who falls in love are named Jack and Rose. Jack was a poor man while Rose came from a wealthy family who wanted her to marry someone as wealthy as her. Her family couldn’t stand seeing her hanging around a poor man so they did everything they could to keep them away from each other. Around the end the ship hits an iceberg and starts sinking while Jack was handcuffed down in the cellar in the ship. Rose couldn’t find Jack for anything and then finally found him and saved him. They both found a way out and tried their hardest to stay together. Rose refused to get on the life boat without Jack. They got off the boat but the water was so cold. Jack started giving up and eventually died. Rose was rescued right after Jack died.

            

           This movie had a strong hook because at the beginning they opened it with Rose in her olden days looking at the picture that the scuba divers found (338). Jack drew that picture of  her when they was on the ship and she started thinking about her past and about her first actual love. They also opened it with rose knowing that she is the most important character in this movie and it is about her love life (339). The movies adheres was a five out of five of the elements of a riveting first line.
