In 1996, treasure hunter Brock Lovett and his team explore the wreck of the RMS
Titanic, searching for a necklace set with a valuable blue diamond called the Heart of
the Ocean. They discover a drawing of a young woman reclining nude, wearing the
Heart of the Ocean, dated the day the Titanic sank. News of this drawing on television
attracts the interest of the woman in question,
Rose Dawson Calvert, now nearly 101, who
informs Lovett that she is the nude woman in
the drawing. She and her granddaughter Lizzy
visit Lovett on his ship, and she recalls her
memories as 17-year-old Rose DeWitt Bukater
aboard the Titanic to the somewhat skeptical
team. In 1912, young Rose boards the
departing ship with the upper-class passengers,
her mother, Ruth DeWitt Bukater, and her
fiancé, Caledon Hockley. Also on board is
Margaret "Molly" Brown, who makes the acquaintance of Rose's party. Distraught
and frustrated with her engagement to Cal and her controlled life, Rose attempts to
commit suicide by jumping from the stern, but a drifter and artist named Jack
Dawson, who had won his ticket on the ship from a poker game, intervenes. Initially
Cal, his friends and the sailors, overhearing Rose's screams, believe the penniless Jack
attempted to rape her. She explains Jack saved her life, covering up her suicide
attempt by explaining she slipped after trying to see the propellers. Jack corroborates
her white lie to everyone present, but privately, Hockley's manservant, former police
officer Spicer Lovejoy, expresses to Jack his skepticism. Jack and Rose strike up a
tentative friendship as she thanks him for his corroboration, and he shares stories of
his adventures traveling and sketching; their bond deepens when they leave a first-
class formal dinner for a much livelier gathering in third-class.
Cal is informed of her partying in the steerage and forbids Rose to meet Jack again.
Rose's mother also commands her to give up Jack and save her engagement to Cal in
order to ensure their financial welfare. Eventually, Jack confronts Rose alone, but she
is inclined to ignore their growing affection
because of her engagement and responsibilities.
However, after witnessing a woman encouraging
her seven-year-old daughter to behave like a
"proper lady" at tea, Rose later changes her mind
and decides to offer her heart to Jack in a forbidden
romance. As a sign of her affection, she asks him
to sketch her nude wearing only the Heart of the
Ocean, which she had previously been offered as
an engagement present by Cal. Afterwards, the two
run away from Lovejoy, and they go below decks
By Răulea Mihaela- Nicoleta
to the cargo hold. They enter William Carter's Renault traveling car and have sex,
before escaping up to the ship's forward well deck. Rose decides that when they arrive
at New York, she will leave the ship with Jack. They then witness the ship's collision
Rose manages to free Jack with a fire axe, and finds that the third-class passengers are
trapped below decks. Frustrated, Jack breaks through a gate, allowing Rose and others
to make their way to the boat deck. Cal and Jack, though enemies, both want Rose
safe and so they manage to persuade Rose to board a lifeboat. But after realizing that
she cannot leave Jack, Rose jumps back on the ship and reunites with Jack in the
ship's first class staircase. Infuriated, Cal takes Lovejoy's pistol and chases Jack and
Rose down the decks and into the first class dining saloon. After running out of
ammunition, he angrily shouts at them saying that he hopes "they enjoy their time
together" and realizes that he has unintentionally left the diamond in the pocket of an
overcoat that Rose is wearing. Hockley returns to the boat deck and gets aboard
Collapsible A by pretending to look after an abandoned child. This is one of only two
lifeboats remaining on the ship. Although Jack and Rose manage to avoid Cal's fury,
they find that the lifeboats are gone. With no other options, they decide to head aft
and stay on the ship for as long as possible before it sinks completely. Eventually, the
ship breaks in half and begins its final descent, washing everyone into the freezing
Atlantic waters. Jack and Rose are separated under the water but shortly reunite.
Around them, well over a thousand people are dying painfully from hypothermia.
around her. This is the last time she ever sees Hockley. Upon arrival in New York
City, Rose registers her name as Rose Dawson and presumably starts a life on her
own. Through the elderly Rose, we learn that Cal went on
to marry another woman, and later committed suicide as a
result of business losses in the Great Depression. The
subsequent story of Rose's mother, who escaped on a
lifeboat and was presumably rescued, is not told. After
completing her story to the team (who now look at her with
sympathy and awe), the elderly Rose goes alone to the
stern of Lovett's ship. After she steps onto the railing, it is
revealed that she still has the Heart of the Ocean in her
possession. She then drops the diamond into the water,
sending it to join the remains of the single most important
event of her life. She kept every promise she had made to Jack, and did everything
they ever talked about doing. Rose lies in her bed, next to photographs of her life's
achievements, as the shot pans across her into darkness. The film ends with a vision
of young Rose reuniting with Jack at the Grand Staircase, surrounded by those who
perished with Jack. They kiss and embrace, and all the people on the staircase start to
applaud. It is left up to the viewer to decide the meaning of the ending: whether Rose
is only dreaming or if it is truly a vision of Rose reuniting with her lover in the
