5.0 out of 5 stars Human story centred around a family aboard the Titanic., 4 May 2009
By FAMOUS NAME (UNITED KINGDOM) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      

This is a very beautiful film.

Typically, many would feel that this is about the sinking of the 'Titanic' and the well-documented disaster, but this is much more than this.

A very 'human' story here about a family with 'issues' who get aboard. The husband and father joins the rest of his family unexpectedly, and somewhat unwelcomed, and various problems amongst them ensue.

The outstanding thing about this version of the story, is the fabulous acting from the two leads in particular; Clifton Webb and Barbara Stanwyck and the tremendously talented close-up shots and sequences of the pure and raw emotion.

Before watching this, expect it to be much much more than the drama of the sinking of a great ship and all its tragedy.

Also stars Thelma Ritter and a young Robert Wagner.

A great movie!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good, 14 Mar 2009
By Alex da Silva (Lytham St. Annes, UK) - See all my reviews
Richard Sturges (Clifton Webb) buys a ticket from a passenger about to
board the Titanic at Cherbourg. He does this so that he can be reunited
with his wife Julia (Barbara Stanwyck) and children Annette (Audrey
Dalton) and Norman (Harper Carter). Julia has run away from him with
the children to start a new life in America and they are all already on
board. The film follows their story, in particular the fighting and
revelations between Richard and Julia. We are introduced to other
characters around this main story, eg, college boy Giff (Robert Wagner)
who falls in love with Annette and sacked priest George (Richard
Basehart) who has an alcohol problem. With 30 minutes to go, the
emphasis shifts to the iceberg trouble and the inevitable outcome.....
who survives...?...

Its very well acted by the 2 lead characters. Clifton Webb and Barbara
Stanwyck match each other in their games of one-upmanship and the
positions in which they find themselves. Webb comes across as cold and
rigid in his views for the children's futures, while Stanwyck, equally
determined has an ace up her sleeve........Webb reacts in a typically
cold fashion. However, things change when the iceberg strikes.

The film is good yet sad. I welled up about 6 times in the last 20
minutes or so and I'm the toughest man on the planet. We all know the
story of the Titanic and this film doesn't disappoint.
