Customer Reviews

feel like you are looking over Cameron's shoulder.

Excellent reporting on how this film was made and the details that made it such a facinating, successful movie. Author was right on, and had the ability to chronicle Cameron's intensive and demanding direction.

Driving through the Green Light

The story of an obsessed man who is driven to make a dream. Cameron steams through Hollywood, Baja and the world on the most Titanic ship ever, the blockbuster movie. This is how Hollywood movies are made today. The deals, the visions and the drive to overcome. Are you as obsessed? Well done!

Very good read.

Very well done; gives you a better idea for what it took than any of the articles published; gives you an idea of the fights and the struggles and it really gets a lot deeper and a lot more detailed than any of the articles ever have. There are a few glaring spelling errors, though.

Informative and entertaining.

A great read for fans of the movie Titanic. However, it was annoying to see all the typos in the paperback version (don't know about the hardcover). Here is one example: Page 123.... In one sentence we read about etiquette coach Lynne Hockney and in the following sentence she is referred to as Hockley. Did anyone bother to proof-read this?? The name of the painter Monet was spelled incorrectly as Manet (maybe there is a painter by that name) and so on. However, still an enjoyable read.

An intriguing love story with a realsitic view of titanic.

This movie is simply heartwrenching. Everytime I see it (3 times) I cry, shiver, and feel so deeply moved by this movie. No other movie has touched my heart and my soul like Titanic.
