Filmed in semi-documentary style, this good effort was a success on its initial release in 1958. The film graced by many fine actors was an account of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. Budget limitations meant of course that models had to be used. However, the atmosphere of the film was never compromised. Kenneth More really excelled himself here and his portrayal of 2nd Officer Lightoller is memorable. The final scenes in the water are extremely emotional. And the very final scene of the Titanic's debris floating past the rescue ship even more so.
