　　1912年4月10日，号称 “世界工业史上的奇迹”的豪华客轮泰坦尼克号开始了自己的处女航，从英国的南安普顿出发驶往美国纽约。富家少女罗丝（凯特•温丝莱特）与母亲及未婚夫卡尔坐上了头等舱；另一边，放荡不羁的少年画家杰克（莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥）也在码头的一场赌博中赢得了下等舱的船票。 　　罗丝厌倦了上流社会虚伪的生活，不愿嫁给卡尔，打算投海自尽，被杰克救起。很快，美丽活泼的罗丝与英俊开朗的杰克相爱，杰克带罗丝参加下等舱的舞会、为她画像，二人的感情逐渐升温。 　　1912年4月14日，星期天晚上，一个风平浪静的夜晚。泰坦尼克号撞上了冰山，“永不沉没的”泰坦尼克号面临沉船的命运，罗丝和杰克刚萌芽的爱情也将经历生死的考验。 Titanic; the pride and joy of the White Star Line and, at the time, the largest moving object ever built. She was the most luxurious liner of her era -- the "ship of dreams" -- which ultimately carried over 1,500 people to their death in the ice cold waters of the North Atlantic in the early hours of April 15, 1912.

THE SKETCH captures them perfectly, with a great sense of the humanity of the moment. Jack is good. Really good. Fabrizio looks over Jack's shoulder.
He nods appreciatively.
TOMMY RYAN, a scowling young Irish emigrant, watches as a crewmember comes by, walking three small dogs around the deck. One of them, a BLACK FRENCH BULLDOG, is among the ugliest creatures on the planet.
TOMMY:
That's typical. First class dogs come down here to take a sh*t.
Jack looks up from his sketch.
JACK:
That's so we know where we rank in the scheme of things.
TOMMY:
Like we could forget.
Jack glances across the well deck. At the aft railing of B deck promenade stands ROSE, in a long yellow dress and white gloves.
CLOSE ON JACK, unable to take his eyes off of her. They are across from each other, about 60 feet apart, with the well deck like a valley between them. She on her promontory, he on his much lower one. She stares down at the water.
He watches her unpin her elaborate hat and take it off. She looks at the frilly absurd thing, then tosses it over the rail. It sails far down to the water and is carried away, astern. A spot of yellow in the vast ocean. He is riveted by her. She looks like a figure in a romantic novel, sad and isolated.
Fabrizio taps Tommy and they both look at Jack gazin at Rose. Fabrizio and Tommy grin at each other.
Rose turns suddenly and looks right at Jack. He is caught staring, but he doesn't look away. She does, but then looks back. Their eyes meet across the space of the well deck, across the gulf between worlds.
Jack sees a man (Cal) come up behind her and take her arm. She jerks her arm away. They argue in pantomime. She storms away, and he goes after her, disappearing along the A-deck promenade. Jack stares after her.
TOMMY:
Forget it, boyo. You'd as like have angels fly out o' yer arse as get next to the likes o' her.
CUT TO:
61 INT. FIRST CLASS DINING SALOON - NIGHT SLOWLY PUSHING IN ON ROSE as she sits, flanked by people in heated conversation. Cal and Ruth are laughing together, while on the other side LADY DUFF-GORDON is holding forth animatedly. We don't hear what they are saying. Rose is staring at her plate, barely listening to the inconsequential babble around her.
OLD ROSE (V.O.) I saw my whole life as if I'd already lived it... an endless parade of parties and cotillions, yachts and polo matches... always the same narrow people, the same mindless chatter. I felt like I was standing at a great precipice, with no one to pull me back, no one who cared... or even noticed.
ANGLE BENEATH TABLE showing Rose's hand, holding a tiny fork from her crab salad. She pokes the crab-fork into the skin of her arm, harder and harder until it draws blood.
CUT TO:
62 INT. CORRIDOR / B DECK - NIGHT Rose walks along the corridor. A steward coming the other way greets her, and she nods with a slight smile. She is perfectly composed.
CUT TO:
63 INT. ROSE'S BEDROOM - NIGHT She enters the room. Stands in the middle, staring at her reflection in the large vanity mirror. Just stands there, then-- With a primal, anguished cry she claws at her throat, ripping off her pearl necklace, which explodes across the room. In a frenzy she tears at herself, her clothes, her hair... then attacks the room. She flings everything off the dresser and it flies clattering against the wall. She hurls a handmirror against the vanity, cracking it.
CUT TO:
64 EXT. A DECK PROMENADE, AFT - NIGHT Rose runs along the B deck promenade. She is dishevelled, her hair flying.
She is crying, her cheeks streaked with tears. But also angry, furious!
Shaking with emotions she doesn't understand... hatred, self-hatred, desperation. A strolling couple watch her pass. Shocked at the emotional display in public.
CUT TO:
65 EXT. POOP DECK - NIGHT Jack is kicked back on one of the benches gazing at the stars blazing gloriously overhead. Thinking artist thoughts and smoking a cigarette.
Hearing something, he turns as Rose runs up the stairs from the well deck.
They are the only two on the stern deck, except for QUARTERMASTER ROWE, twenty feet above them on the docking bridge catwalk. She doesn't see Jack in the shadows, and runs right past him.
