‘Titanic 3D’: An unnecessary enhancement
To contemplate "Titanic 3D" - James Cameron\\\'s 1997
action-adventure-historical-romance about the 1912
sinking of the eponymous ship - is to engage in a double
dose of wistfulness. Cameron’s movie takes filmgoers back
not only to an era that seemed to disappear along with the
1,500 people who perished in the disaster, but to a more
recent time, when an un-superstar named Leonardo
DiCaprio and an unknown named Kate Winslet were barely
in their 20s, as ripe and tender as a baby’s sit-down.
With Cameron having converted "Titanic" to 3-D in
celebration of the film\\\'s 15th anniversary, watching the new
version also points up just how unnecessary such
technological gimmicks are when you have a perfectly
good original in the first place. The added visual depth
neither enhances nor detracts from the charm of revisiting
the film\\\'s young actors in the beginning of their fame.
Cameron pays tribute to a Victorian civilization and
culture that went down with the ship, his film pays tribute to
an era when a hugely expensive movie could be made with
no-name stars, just as it announces a coming age when
stars would barely be needed if a director could
manipulate the right computer effects.
