Review of A Night to Remember (1958) by Marcus W — 06 May 2016

Nearly 60 years old this film hasn't aged a day and is still comfortably by some margin the definitive film about the Titanic sinking. It's not exaggeration to say that this is superior in every single element to Cameron's 1997 theme-park ride effort of a movie which reduced the tragedy to spectacle and a twiddly-dee love story.

A cast of fantastic character actors, an incredible set and a story which manages to intertwine a raft of individual stories to impressive effect, this really is a classic. Easily one of the greatest British films ever made and by it's conclusion, incredibly moving.
