It might be hard to believe, but one of the top three grossing films of all time doesn’t involve Marvel superheroes, the magic of Harry Potter, or even Star Wars Jedis. It’s a James Cameron directed love story starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet about a couple on an “unsinkable” boat crossing the Atlantic Ocean. The epic disaster romance, Titanic, has earned over about $2.1 billion dollars since its 1997 release and is still currently the third highest-grossing film of all time.

Famous titanic quotes: life is a gift
  • Jack Dawson: Well, yes, ma’am, I do… I mean, I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what’s gonna happen or, who I’m gonna meet, where I’m gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life’s a gift and I don’t intend on wasting it. You don’t know what hand you’re gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you — to make each day count.”

Titanic Quotes & The Power Of A Great Script

The Titanic movie wasn’t just a hit with audiences, but both critics and award judges raved about the film. Titanic won a lot of Oscars during the 1998 Academy Awards. Everything including the film’s musical score, soundtrack, direction, visual effects, cinematography, set decoration, acting, and even screenplay won awards that year. But in the end, it all comes back to the script. A movie can have everything else, but without a great script, it won’t go anywhere.
