The Woman in the Picture | Scene 3 (Republished) Apr 11, 2025

Show notes

Episode republished with music removed due to a copyright notice. Originally published April 2019.

Brock and his team don't find the diamond necklace they're looking for, but they do find the next best thing: A drawing of a woman wearing it! Listen as we talk about the eerie beauty of possessing something that once belonged to someone else, some fun facts from the book "Titanic: James Cameron's Illustrated Screenplay" (a.k.a. this podcast's bible), and more general conversation about this lovely movie. It's gettin' real good now.

A Promise Kept | Scene 40 (The Finale!) May 22, 2024

Show notes

Well, here we are. After 5 years, 44 episodes and thousands of minutes spent talking about this movie... We've reached the final scene of James Cameron's TITANIC.

What a journey it's been. In this "finale" episode, we discuss the epically beautiful theatrical curtain call (plus the wacky alternate ending) and feature a collection of emails and voicemails from some of our lovely listeners!

Thank you all so much for your passion and support over the years. It's been a blast... but it's not over yet! The end credits episode is up next!

The Carpathia | Scene 39 Apr 11, 2024

Show notes

Part one of our "two-part finale" is here! Can you believe it?! WE CAN'T!

In this episode we talk all about the extended Carpathia sequence, lots of deleted dialogue, final payoffs, and peel back the layers of a couple key moments.

We also feature four voicemails from listeners and want to say a huge thank you to them for sending them in! If you'd like your voice to be heard, you still have time to submit a voice recording for the final scene and our "end credits" episode! :)

As always, thank you all so much for listening.

I'll Never Let Go (with guest Alexandra Boyd) | Scene 38 Mar 25, 2024

Show notes

We reunite with Titanic cast member, first class woman Alexandra Boyd, to discuss such an imperative scene in the movie as Rose begins to live out her promise to Jack.

Alexandra shares some behind the scenes tidbits with us, as well as some unique perspectives on the scene as a filmmaker herself! Big thanks to her for guesting again!

The Promise (with guest Liz Osban) | Scene 37 Mar 03, 2024

Show notes

While waiting for help to arrive, Rose makes a promise to Jack that she will carry with her for the rest of her life. Later, Officer Lowe returns in lifeboat 14 to a very grim sight.

For this scene we brought back our pal Liz Osban to discuss yet another massively important one!

Sea of Humanity (The "Door" Debate) | Scene 36 Feb 15, 2024

Show notes

We've reached the scene that birthed possibly the most notorious "debate" in cinematic history. In our opinion, of course, there's not much of a debate here. Listen as we address (and squash) multiple arguments people have made over the last 26 years!

We also read a listener email, go over a few historical beats and discuss some deleted scenes!

Death of Titanic - Part 2 (w/ guest Pablo O'Hana) | Scene 35 Feb 01, 2024

Show notes

Here we go.

We've brought on another special guest to discuss what many consider to be the main event here. Fellow Titanic obsessive Pablo O'Hana joins us for a breakdown of "Death of Titanic - Part 2." We had a great time chatting about such an impactful scene. In fact, this scene was the entry point of Pablo's Titanic origin story! He tells us all about that and provides such great commentary!

Thanks for coming on the pod, Pablo!

Death of Titanic - Part 1 (w/ guest Adam Stolfo) | Scene 35 Jan 17, 2024

Show notes

The first episode of the new year is here! Happy 2024! We hope you all had a lovely holiday season! And now... We begin the final stretch of new episodes.

For this scene, we chat with Adam Stolfo. A fellow Titanic fan, lover of film, and podcaster among many other things. We discuss one of his favorite scenes, the first part of the death of Titanic. Some talking points include: interesting musical cues and sound design, character motivations, some great (and dodgy) CGI, and of course... the infamous Propeller Guy.
