Titanic's Forgotten Movie - Paperback

by Richard F. White (Contribution by), William Russo (Author)

Garbo on Titanic Directed by Alfred Hitchcock It almost happened The truth of 1953's movie Titanic is buried in studio archives. Stripped of its original title, Nearer My God to Thee, it was soon rendered secondary to more realistic films. Amid special computer effects and historically accurate epics, the Hollywood version became a dinosaur almost immediately, not quite vanity film-epitomizing an arrogant studio system. More mysterious than critics believed, the movie should gain new respect. With research now complete, this was a Hollywood movie with a supernatural caste to the cast. The real story of making a Titanic movie is told in this new book.
