Titanic
by Jasna Rakić, 15

My favourite movie is Titanic. The director of the movie is James Cameron and the movie was awarded 12 Oscars. The genre of the movie is drama. The main stars are Leonardo De Caprio and Kate Winslet.

The movie is about an old woman who is telling us about her life and her trip on the Titanic. That is a story about two young people who fell in love accidentally. She was from a very wealthy and respected family and she had a very rich fiancée. She, her mother and her future husband got on a trip by ship which was very expensive and very luxurious. They were in a first class. Jack was an ordinary boy who won a ticket for a trip on the Titanic by playing cards. He was in a third class. One night he saw her walking on the deck of the ship. He recognized her as his future love. Then and there she fell in love with him. They had a quiet relationship until her fiancé found out about them. Before that, Jack had drawn her with a necklace which was very valuable. Her fiancé accused Jack that he wanted to steal that necklace and made sure that a guard would arrest the boy. After a while the ship hit an iceberg and water started coming into the ship.

Jack was tied down and left in a room somewhere in the ship. Nobody thought of him. Only Rose tried to save him and she succeeded. The crew told the passengers to let the women and children in the save boats. Almost everybody obeyed that rule but her. Rose wanted to stay with Jack. The ship started sinking deeper and deeper. Finally they were in a very, very cold water. She found some plank which belonged to the ship. He stayed in cold water.

Tomorrow morning, some boats arrived offering help. She woke up and saw many people dead, floating in the freezing water. Jack was among them.

Maybe that was a destiny or something else but the Titanic sank and took many lives with it. Today people also talk about that ill-luck and they invent some things which are not true.
