Movie Reviews of National Geographic - Secrets of the Titanic
Movie Review: Great Documentary on the Titanic
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this to show kids in a middle school class the REAL story of the titanic. We found that all the kids had an understanding of the Titanic that was based on the MOVIE, so I sought out a good documentary type of feel so they could get the real story and THIS IS IT! What a great film. You should have seen the faces of the kids - they were glued to TV screen and very unhappy when we had to stop the film because time was up for the class. They arrived the next day charged up, ready to get back into the story. You will enjoy this feel - it has great historic images and lots of "backstory" on the Titanic. Well constructed and narrated. This will now be shown for years to come to middle-schoolers who think Leonardo DiCaprio was actually on the ship, screaming "I'm the king of the world!!!"...
Summary of National Geographic - Secrets of the Titanic
Discover the real story beind the biggest hollywood movie of all time. Join robert ballard and his team for the most celebrated underwater expedition of our time revisiting and exploring the remains of r.M.S. Titanic two-and-a-half miles beneath the surface of the icy atlantic. Includes many special features. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 05/24/2005 Run time: 70 minutes Rating: NrThe tragedy of the Titanic has fascinated all since she sank with 1,500 of her passengers and crew in 1912. Much later, scientist Robert Ballard set out to find and explore the wreck, despite difficulties of depth and location. Using the research submarine Alvin and a remote-controlled underwater robot, he was the first human in over 70 years to see the giant resting beneath the North Atlantic waves. Secrets of the Titanic tells the story of the events leading up to the sinking using footage and photographs from the doomed maiden voyage and then follows the luckier Dr. Ballard through the steps leading to his discovery. As usual for National Geographic, the photography is excellent, even within the cramped confines of the tiny Alvin. The first views of the Titanic's interior are truly spectacular, especially when contrasted with vintage photos, and the excitement of Ballard and his crew is contagious. The spirit and joys of discovery are well captured and the viewer is reminded that the world is still teeming with opportunities for adventure. --Rob Lightner
