Reportedly, James Cameron was so passionate about visiting the sunken Titanic that he managed to take all the shots he wanted to take in the first dive itself. But as soon as he came back to the surface, he burst into tears. He was really emotional after realising the magnitude of the historic tragedy that he witnessed. In fact, he reportedly spent more time on the ship compared to its living passengers.
Meanwhile, it has also been reported that it was James Cameron himself who had created the famous n*de painting of Rose originally. In fact, all the paintings which Jack carries in the film were the art of Cameron.
Titanic did a worldwide business of more than $2 billion. Even after more than 2 decades of its release, the film is the 3rd highest-grosser of all time globally.
