Indeed, he even temp tracked the film with her music. The film was also an astounding commercial success, earning $2.2 billion at the box office.Д¬ameronвЂ™s initial conception of the score was to have Irish singer and songwriter Enya compose it. The film received universal critical acclaim and secured the greatest number of Academy Award nominations in the modern era, fourteen, winning eleven including Best Picture, Best Director, Cinematography, Film Editing, Costume Design, Art Direction, Visual Effects, and Sound Editing, as well as Best Original Song and Best Original Score nods for composer James Horner вЂ“ the only ones he would win in his career. The film explored this love affair, and JackвЂ™s supreme sacrifice in saving RoseвЂ™s life, against the backdrop of the sinking of the greatest cruise liner the world had ever known. What unfolds is a story of love, of how she met a young man called Jack Dawson, and how he, in every way, saved her. She relates how she was unhappily engaged to wealthy steel magnate Cal Hockley, a man thirteen years her senior. Rose Dawson Calvert, who is pictured in the drawing but is now almost 100 years old, is brought to the ship and proceeds to tell her intimate story of the fateful voyage in 1912. They succeed in retrieving a safe and discover that the necklace is missing, but instead recover a picture of a young naked woman wearing the necklace. The film opens in 1996 aboard the research vessel Keldysk where Brock Lovett, a treasure hunter, and his crew are searching the wreck of the Titanic in hope of retrieving the famed Heart of the Ocean blue diamond necklace. He brought in a fine cast to support his vision, including Leonardo Di Caprio as Jack Dawson, Kate Winslet as Rose DeWitt Bukater, Billy Zane as Cal Hockley, Frances Fisher as Ruth DeWitt Bukater, Gloria Stuart as the older Rose, Kathy Bates as the Unsinkable Margaret вЂњMollyвЂќ Brown, Victor Garber as Thomas Andrews, Bill Paxton as Brock Lovett, David Warner as Spicer Lovejoy, and Danny Nucci as Fabrizio De Rossi.Д¬ameronвЂ™s vision, offering a love story and intimate portraits of the many people who lost their lives or survived the sinking, added a human dimension to the tragic backdrop of the Titanic voyage. He was provided with the largest budget ever for a film at that time вЂ“ $200 million вЂ“ and took it upon himself to do what had never been done before to produce, direct, write and edit a film. They bought his idea given his resume of directorial success, as they wanted to secure him for future projects. He pitched his story to 20th Century Fox executives as вЂRomeo and Juliet on the TitanicвЂ™. He believed that telling the story of the sinking of the great ship in and of itself was insufficient, so the addition of a love story as well as an intimate exploration of the lives of the people who died would add a compelling narrative to the tale. James Cameron had long been fascinated with shipwrecks and conceived to write a love story set on the greatest shipwreck of all time вЂ“ the RMS Titanic.
