Titanic (1953 Movie)Titanic is 1953 movie, which is not to be confused with the movie with the same title made in 1997. Its plot, like in the 1997 movie, is centered around the maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic, which took place in April 1912. Plot The film stars Clifton Webb and Barbara Stanwyck as Richard and Julia Struges, a divorcing couple traveling in First Class on the Titanic. Determined to remove her family from Richards' "high society" world, Julia secretly takes their two children: seventeen-year-old Annette and ten-year-old Norman onto the Titanic and plans to raise them in her hometown of Mecannack, Michigan. However, after he learns of her plans, Richard buys a steerage ticket aboard the vessell in hopes of reconciling with his family. Also aboard is a twenty-year-old cricket player Gifford Rogers, played by Robert Wagner, who falls for Annette, and a suspended priest who has become an alcoholic. The film was a hit and it touched and terrified movie goers around the world. It also spawned new interest in the Titanic sinking and inspired Walter Lord to write his great novel A Night to Remember. Other Titanic movies External links
