James Cameron spoke about Jack’s death, saying it was a necessity: “In my opinion, a happy ending would have disrespected the tragedy of the event,” he said, then referring to Rose’s fate. As a reminder, at the end of the film, Rose, now an old lady, falls asleep peacefully. The next sequence shows her as a young girl, back on the Titanic, reuniting with Jack, the love of her life. Since its release in 1997, there has been still doubt as to whether the character is dreaming or dying… A question that James Cameron does not seem to want to answer categorically: “As for the ending, Rose dreams or dies, they are reunited,” the filmmaker began, adding: “When we were filming the final sequence, Gloria Stuart, who played the elderly Rose, said to me: ‘So, Mr. Director, should I play her dead or alive?’ I said, ‘Hold your breath!’” An answer as enigmatic as ever… It’s up to us to form our own opinion!
James Cameron: rediscover all his films at the Cinémathèque de Paris
In addition to the exhibition, the Cinémathèque de Paris is also offering a retrospective of all James Cameron’s films, until 26 May. The ideal opportunity to dive into the filmmaker’s universe before exploring the different rooms of his exhibition. Although James Cameron has already left France to return to work on the production of Avatar 3, he told Le Parisien that his exhibition is being held in Paris, stressing that the French have a very sharp critical eye: “The French revere cinema. Your criticisms are of a very good level. What we, filmmakers, try to slip into a film goes over the heads of the majority of viewers, but not the French.” A glowing compliment that we welcome with pleasure!
