I'll never forget him saying "We waited too long." Sent chills down my spine the first time I heard it.

The writing in this movie is so moving. The integrity and dignity for those that didn’t survive in his line “be careful, don’t hit them!” 😢

I recently watched the interview of Eva Hart, a survivor. And she said the worst part of the night wasn’t the screaming or the crying. It was the silence that came afterward

[nadinehart]

He tried…he was too late but he tried when no one else would!

[Thatgrungekid]

The most eerie scene in the entire movie, just a mass of bodies laying there lifeless in the water with the suspenseful music. Heartbreaking

[sangrilamoon]

As a 27 year old man I have no shame in saying this song with the movie combined can still bring me to tears. A timeless masterpiece.

A haunting scene that cannot be erased from your mind.

There was a survivor in a documentary on the Titanic disaster and he said that for many years he lived near a school with a large football stadium. Whenever a game was played and the crowd would cheer, he would think of the mass of people in the water after the ship sank and said that was what it sounded like. 1500 people drowning and freezing to death in the waters of the North Atlantic.

this woman's death is probably the most realistic depiction of what happened to third class passengers. she's the same lady that asked the captain where she should go after all the boats had already been lowered, she had only just found her way out of steerage far too late because third class passengers were forgotten in the chaos. they weren't locked downstairs, the fact that the ship was sinking wasn't properly communicated to them and by the time they finally found their way to the upper deck they had never been given access to, most of the boats were gone and the ones that remained had over a thousand people competing for entry.

Lowe is one of the biggest heroes from the Titanic, and its heartbreaking to see him so upset about waiting too long

The mother and baby are Anna Danbom and her son Gilbert, the youngest Titanic victim, from Sweden. The father also perished, Ernst Danbom, born in America, who returned to his ancestral homeland of Sweden to marry, and then intended to take his bride and baby back to the USA with him, to start a fruit farm in California. They were travelling with the Andersson family, also from Sweden, who all died in the sinking as well.

What’s sad is that the officers that came back reported that they did hear voices throughout the sea of dead people upon coming back but because of all the debris, darkness, and overall difficulty of steering the small boat they couldn’t get to them on time/couldn’t get to them at all.

[whitneydavis]

What’s even more chilling to think about is that no one actually had a flashlight that night. Once the lights had gone out on the ship and it had gone under, they were in total darkness. There was no moon that night. I can’t even imagine the terror those people experienced.

[Iris_n_Parti]

looking at this now as an adult really makes this scene haunting, as a kid I never realised the context of this scene was that all those people in the water are dead. Now that I have a more understanding mind, I can feel the officer's shock and sadness, knowing that only now that he came back instead of sooner meant all these people have died

[ATWTMVTVFTVSGAVRALPS]

This scene is so disturbing, especially that dead infant

[andrewli]

Saddest thing is that he did the right thing in waiting. If he didn’t wait for a majority of people to die, it’s possible they would have swamped the boat and overturned it.

I became a Dad 2 years ago. Until you're a parent you never truly understand the wrench on your heart seeing the mother and baby in the water. I've watched this movie countless times before becoming a Dad, and it never got me like it does now. Just an awful feeling

💐💐RIP Commander Harold Godfrey Lowe RD, RNR (21 November 1882 – 12 May 1944) (aged 61) and all the victims of the RMS Titanic you will truly all be missed and my prayers go out to you. He helped scores of women and children into lifeboats and was the only Titanic officer to go back to rescue people. The archive includes a telescope given to him by a survivor who had it inscribed: “To Harold G. Lowe... The Real Hero of the Titanic.” 💐💐

"Is anyone alive out there?!" Goosebumps

[danielhague]

I cant imagine how it felt to see all those bodies especially the babies
