OH, I see. Of course, the fiance, Cal, DID hit her, so in a way I don’t blame her for rejecting him. But she didn’t have to sleep with Jack, pose nude for him, and then rub Cal’s nose in it by putting the nude drawing where he’d find it.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t blame her for rejecting the fiancee. He was the controlling villain.
But even at the last scene, she could have rescued Jack by playing up to the fiancee. Assuage his ego, reject Jack. The fiancee would have gotten his victory. Rose was so self-absorbed she didn’t think about protecting Jack (even if she temporarily hurt him in the short-term).
Just weak, weak, weak.
If anyone was a danger to my husband, I would tell any lie, pull any stunt, do whatever I needed to do to protect him, to give him a chance to survive. Where there is life, there is hope.
And why they heck didn’t they switch places on the door? He could have made it if she wasn’t so selfish.
And why did she toss the necklace overboard? Give it to the crew who spent millions looking for it. What a waste!
Sorry if I sound judgmental. I’ve been in dicey, life and death situations before, including an active shooter with bullets flying. I made sure the people around me were safe first and worried about myself last. I kept it together until I got home...then I cried like a baby in my husband’s arms.
I enjoyed Titanic for the recreation of final hours. The “love story” made me want to puke.
