James Cameron is amazing. He was a self taught director. Other than a few credits at a community college, he never went to actual film school. He was working as a truck driver in LA in 1977 when he went and saw a little movie called "Star Wars." He walked out of it a changed man, determined to become a filmmaker. So he went to the public library, photocopies pages out of books written by film directors and read other countless books to read techniques. He also went to a thrift store and bought an old movie camera for a few bucks, took it home and learned all the parts, took it apart then put it back together to learn the basic mechanics. Within a year or two he was working as a production assistant on cheap B-grade sci fi films hardly anyone would see, but he didn't care, it was his first foot through the door in Hollywood. Two decades after "Star Wars," he's onstage at the Academy Awards winning Best Picture and Best Director. Wow!
This interview needs to blow up more because it is hands down one of the best interviews with him I've ever seen. I love James Cameron, and you did an amazing job interviewing him.
Jim strikes me as a pretty down to earth guy, someone who doesn’t really enjoy the whole “royalty” aspect of being a celebrity as much as being a creator, an engineer, and an enthusiast.. he always seems to be more natural when talking to other down to earth people.
What makes Titanic unique and such a favorite among viewers is not only its excellent production and acting, but also the powerful emotional story that delights viewers. The film's ability to convey deep feelings of love, loss, hope and despair leaves a deep impression on viewers and helps them connect with the characters and their stories. All in all, Titanic is one of the best movies ever made, boasting incredible production, amazing acting and beautiful music, but most of all, an amazing story that sinks deep into the hearts of the audience.
I agree with all points except storyline and screenplay. There are plenty of very interesting and well documented stories of love, death, and survival, which would have been a lot more appropriate and respectful to the victims rather than a contrived love story of two fictional characters. For instance, Isadore and Ida Strauss, the owners of Macy's department stores. As much as I enjoy Cameron's Titanic, A Night to Remember, is a better movie. Had they the technology in 1952, it would have been a superior film.
With Titanic, you knew how the story would end, but the way Cameron created a love story, and stuck it into the original story of the tragedy of the Titanic, was very clever, and really helped keep the attention of audiences. I found myself dazzled by the Movie, and saddened by the tragedy, all over again! If the Story had not been partly based on a true story, you would almost think it was a James Cameron original Screenplay. In my opinion, Titanic is one of those Movies, that could literally be laid to rest, thanks to James Cameron! No need to ever make another one! It's that good!
First movie I have ever watched in a movie theater, in Douala Cameroon, small coastal town in Central Africa. I remember asking my older brother, who lived in Turkey at the time , to send me money so I could go to the theater to see this movie… I waited 2 hours in line to get in the theater, I was maybe 16 years old… I will never forget it. And Celine Dion!!!!!” My heart will go on “ is still playing on repeat on my Apple Music play list… let’s talk about love, the album, also iconic
Yes! I was 14 when it first came out and also waited in a long line - maybe an hour to get a ticket for a showing three days later. The line extended all the way around the block. And of course when buying the ticket I had no idea that kind of experience I was going to get three days later. The kind that still makes me go see this movie whenever it is rereleased.
@@elenasingleterry5854 ..Have you seen the latest 4K 3D re-mastered version?. .re-released on 10th Feb, 2023 in some selected theaters...To celebrate its 25th anniversary... . 🙂
To This day when I watch Titanic it doesn’t seem like it’s three hours. That last half of the movie is nail biting and leg shaking and foot tapping suspense. Always a great film to watch.
The part at 18:12 where he starts talking about how uncertainty makes you better especially asking yourself what can go wrong. He even relates it to deep ocean projects. Crazy how this conversation goes there, not knowing all the interviews he’d be giving about the ocean gate Titan. This perfectly highlights the difference between James Cameron and Stockton Rush, who had zero uncertainty in the world and and a dangerous confidence in his own decision making to the point that he ignored important information.
Really great interview. I could listen to Cameron speak for hours, and the way you guided the conversation but also let him talk was great. Can't wait for part II
James Is a living legend. My fascination for this story never ends, especially when new information about what happened pops up. This interview was spot on. Well done from Toronto! ❤❤
Excellent interview! Mad respect for James Cameron. Titanic is truly a masterpiece of filmmaking and it is today just a magnificent as when I first saw it in 1998
Phenomenal interview. James Cameron is a hugely inspirational person and this interview was one of his most candid ones. Really enjoyed it & got great wisdom.
There will never be a movie like Titanic ever again! It hits you like a ton of bricks in such a good way tho and not only an amazing story line but it also captures the real lives and what these poor souls went through and if anything it's a beautiful tribute ❤ I seen it as soon as it came out and to this day it's still my favorite movie ❤❤❤
I love him. He is my favorite director. Two days ago I watched “Titanic” on IMAX and it was the best experience in my entire life ❤ Thank you James Cameron for making my childhood!!! Thank you for “Titanic” ❤
@@billium99 Cameron's masterpieces and his filmography are basically the same list. He hasn't directed a film that wasn't five stars. Only he and Tarantino have not directed a film that I did not thoroughly enjoy.
@@histubeness Hehehe....I stand corrected. I admit I wasn't counting "Piranha 2: The Spawning". It was, I believe his first film and was simply brought in to direct, with no control over the final product. If I recall correctly, he broke into the editing room to make some changes that the producers had refused to allow him to make. Given the lack of creative control, I would not count it as one of his own films. That list really started with "The Terminator".
Incredible interview. I’ve been to the cemetery in Halifax it’s very moving. Love Titanic so much. I’m glad you asked him how he got interested in the story.
a tiny slip in/homage in the film that i love pointing out is well james cameron is from Chippewa which is in Niagara Falls Ontario and in the film when Astor is introduced to Jack he asks him if "hes with the Boston Dawson's" to which Jack replies "no im with the Chippewa Falls Dawsons". lol. always thought it was a neat touch and addition including Cameron's home town and as someone who lives in niagara falls/Chippewa Ont. its really cool to see in film. the Chippewa welcome to sign coming in and out of town reads "home of james cameron". i see this sign daily and is really cool and i think of that scene everytime i read that sign.
Im such a fan of James Cameron. One of the greatest creative minds of our time. Also, fantastic interview with great questions! Your really good at this! Rooting for your success!
Incredibly authentic way of asking questions. You treated him like a dude you met at a bar after two drinks. Just were yourself and he responded in-kind. I hope you have him back on and you talk about T2
I truly appreciate Cameron for talking like a human being having an open respectful conversation instead of being a professional performing an interview like so many
Really good but too short because you need at least 2 hours with James Cameron. He has accomplished so much in his life that you could write a Netflix series.
I think 1 of the reasons why they hadn't realized the potential is because they hadn't finished the soundtracks and Sissle humming during the emotional scenes and transitions, it amplified everything. TY to the late James Horner
What a great interview. Cameron is a legend and the interviewer is bright and charming. Makes me feel good as a Canadian to reflect on some of the Canadian cultural traits mentioned. I long suspected NZ is similar.
I’ve been obsessed with this movie since I saw it in the cinema (underage, 3 months before I was 12 at that lol). Still obsessed. But not just with the movie but Titanic as a whole subject. Then just last month when I went to the Titanic Belfast exhibition I find out that my great great uncle died on the ship? Jim is a fantastic filmmaker and his take on the more recent event is perfect.
Back in the 60s, I was in junior high, and there was a copy of Night to Remember in the school library, so I have been a Titanichead since 1968. I was one of those people who avoided the movie since I thought I new the story and there could nothing new. Of course, I was hooked.
Once you see the scene where everyone's boarding the ship in Southampton, all the hustle and bustle and excitment, you know it's going to be a grand film.
I remember seeing this in, I believe 5th grade, I don’t remember if I saw it 2 or 3x but almost all the other girls in my grade had seen it as least that many times if not more. Loved this interview!
For someone in your mid twenties.. it is satisfying... even inspiring to see your articulation skills and thinking on your feet.. in an interview like this. It made us want MORE. It made us rewind, it made us wish that it had gone on.. longer. Thank you for keeping it engaging, well researched and yet spontaneous! and 🙂🤍lots affectionate blessings and wishes💙👌🏼👍🏼 for an even more fulfilling, peaceful future.
13:30 I do not see it out of focus at all in that scene. Not at all from the bluray. It's interesting how the bow story morphs over time. Both the 2001 ET Vaults Titanic Secrets vid and the 1998 Oprah vid Cameron describes it as Kate making the first move to take advantage of that sunset although he isn't super specific, not as specific in the steps to begin filming as he is here. Being on day 10 of outdoor shots, suppose the delayed opportunity let the scene be filmed more linearly with the story timeline so Kate and Leo were fully there
Cant remember where i first watched most movies but i remember where and when i watched Titanic! Also, i remember the matrix was a great first watch that I'll never forget.
It’s unbelievable to think that they shot the iconic bow scene in a ten minute span outdoors while the sun was setting. & they had to run to the bow of the ship 😂. I always thought that they shot that on a stage set. & he now lives in New Zealand. Wow! My home country. I’m going back there ☝️😂 His mind & how he problem solves & goes for the goal Is brilliance in action. Kudos!
2:54 When James Cameron filmed the Titanic on a Russian scientific ship, he met Anatoly Sagalevich, the designer of deep-sea submersibles. Anatoly lamented in passing that there is too much violence, shooting and all that in modern films. It would be nice to make a film about the Titanic in a completely good perspective. And maybe then a light bulb lit up over James' head - this is a love story, of course it should be a love story.
Amazing interview, not like the others so I guess the questions did it, well done! 18:15 He talks about uncertainy and doubt like Rafael Nadal does at Roland Garros where he won 14 times, great champions both of them!
Awesome interview. James seems nice. I heard otherwise but he doesn’t seem unfriendly at all. One of the things that I don’t know if a lot of people realize is that Rose actually died in the same spot she almost died 84 years ago because she’s on the ship above the shipwreck. Any one else catch that? Maybe it was just me but it took me years to realize.
@@MissVis I think she did... She is met in the Grand Staircase by all those who died in the sinking and then the camera pans the glass dome of the Grand Staircase in shimering white light.
I still have two postcards they gave when i bought tickets for this movie upon release in 1997. The movie was a phenomenon, everywhere you went, people were either selling merchandise stuff or talking about it.
Amazing... all these years later and people did the same thing with Avatar 2 saying it was going to be a huge bomb. And, yes no other director would have made Titanic as ambitious and epic.
I was only 12 or so when it came out and when I watched it I loved it. I didn't understand all the love story stuff but the actual story of sinking fascinated me.
I do the same. Skip the first half of the movie. Rose is a terrible person - she sleeps with a homeless man to get out of a marriage and then let’s him drown.
This dude was a truck diver before he started making movies. That really makes me want to become a truck driver.
He also ate old big mac's lol
Elvis was also a Truck Driver lol

The song by James Horner and Wil Jennings and sang by Celine Dion played a huge part of making the Titanic movie a success.

I was only 12 or so when it came out and when I watched it I loved it. I didn't understand all the love story stuff but the actual story of sinking fascinated me.
How could you not understand the "love story stuff" at the age of 12? What's there not to understand?
