Sex & Nudity

Violence & Gore

  • No violence as of such, however during scenes, panicked members of the ship are seen pushing and shoving each other, some of whom are pushed and as a result slide down the ship to their deaths.
  • One of the officers can be seen firing a handgun to stop the riot on the Titanic.
  • A man with the wooden chairs can be seen getting stepped on by people.

Profanity

  • One use of 'bastard' (the strongest word used), and a couple uses of 'hell' and one use of the word 'damned'.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Drinks served in the dining and smoking room. The chief baker gets drunk.
  • One of the first-class women in the lifeboats mentions that it's disgraceful to smoke at a time like this.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Saving first class passengers before second and third class may be disturbing to some.
  • The final scene is very fairly intense but the extras are not very good at acting so you will mostly likely chuckle instead of feeling sad.
  • The final scene is very intense considering the year the film was made.
  • The most intense scenes include a couple being crushed by a falling funnel and a few people seen either freezing to death or drowning. A child is brought out of the water dead (though most of the scene is obscured). Most other scenes are psychological.
  • Really, what hits home is knowing that this is a true story and realising that many people including children died that night.
