In the small town of Millville, nestled in the heart of the American Midwest, life was simple and serene in the early 1970s. The town's main street was lined with charming brick buildings, mom-and-pop shops, and friendly faces that knew each other by name.

The response from Victor Garber's character, Titanic's architect Thomas Andrews, is both confident and poignant: "I have built a good ship, strong and true. She's all the lifeboat you need."
