Critique Challenge: 'Titanic'
My third entry in the Critique 50 word challenge
Titanic is wildly melodramatic. It appeals to the lowest common denominator of emotional manipulation. The film uses a real life tragedy to frame a tacky romantic plot that only works because of two remarkable actors. The direction is assured but it demonstrates, almost accidentally, the dilettante qualities of its creator

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
