Plot summary

The story of R.M.S. Titanic, the famous luxury liner that claimed to be unsinkable. The plot focuses on the romances of two couples upon the doomed ship's maiden voyage. Isabella Paradine (Catherine Zeta-Jones) is a wealthy woman mourning the loss of her aunt, who reignites a romance with former flame Wynn Park (Peter Gallagher). Meanwhile, a charming ne'er-do-well named Jamie Perse (Mike Doyle) steals a ticket for the ship, and falls for a sweet innocent Irish girl on board. But their romance is threatened by the nefarious Simon Doonan (Tim Curry), who has discovered about the ticket and makes Jamie his unwilling accomplice, as well as having sinister plans for the girl. The passengers and crew race against time to escape the Titanic and decide who will go into the lifeboats that can only hold more than half of the ship's people before they face almost certain death.—Anonymous
