Before either of the AVATAR movies, James Cameron conquered the box office with TITANIC. His romantic adventure starring Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio as passengers aboard the ocean liner's doomed maiden voyage is one of the most popular movies ever made. Now a remastered version is back in theatres for Valentine's Day. We got the chance to speak to Cameron about making the movie.
We didn't ask some of the obvious questions — whether or not Jack and Rose could both have fit on the makeshift raft at the end of the movie has been definitively answered by the filmmaker, for example.
Instead we asked Cameron about making fiction out of truth, the impact of the film, and his views on the movie's enduring popularity.
Watch our full interview with James Cameron below:
TITANIC is now in theatres to celebrate the movie's 25th Anniversary.
