What A Night to Remember Is About

The night the Titanic sank, told through the behaviour of dozens of people aboard rather than a single love story. What stands out is the organisation: the camera moves from deck to deck, drops from first class into the engine rooms, and keeps track of who learns what and when. Heroism and cowardice are both delivered without emphasis, and both turn up in the same people on the same night. The obsession with detail gives it a documentary rigour. Even for viewers who know the larger productions that followed, this remains distinct, because its subject is a system rather than a couple.
