Summary of Titanica (Large Format)
Plunge two and one half miles beneath the surface of the North Atlantic and immerse yourself in a once-in-a-lifetime adventure of discovery -- TITANICA. The world's greatest deep-sea scientists and award-winning filmmakers are your guides in a high-risk journey to the resting place of one of this century's darkest tragedies. Narrated by Leonard Nimoy and shot by IMAX(R) on 70mm film, TITANICA reveals the clearest motion pictures ever captured of the Titanic. Witness startling images of the long-lost ruin contrasted with never-before-seen 1912 archival photos showing her in all her splendor. Feel the passion of the explorers, each obsessed with a different aspect of the expedition. Relive the memories of two survivors -- an exclusive interview with Frank Goldsmith and the poignant recollections of Eva Hart. An IMAX film of extraordinary power, TITANICA sheds breathtaking light on the legend that is Titanic.Two years before James Cameron's Titanic became a pop-culture phenomenon, this 1995 IMAX documentary utilized the large-frame movie format to journey to the ocean-floor gravesite of the legendary Titanic, which struck an iceberg and sunk on that fateful night of April 14, 1912. Using re-creations of submersible missions and actual IMAX footage taken at the site of the Titanic wreckage, this spectacular film takes you two and a half miles below the surface of the Atlantic, using state-of-the-art deep-sea technology to capture some of the most eerily detailed footage of the great ship's ghostly remains. It's impossible to re-create the awesome IMAX experience in any home-video format, but this film translates remarkably well to smaller screens, and with its vivid photography and informative historical background, it's one of the best Titanic documentaries available. --Jeff Shannon
