Question:What people from the movie were actually on the ship in real life?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: What people from the movie were actually on the ship in real life?

simple kiddo, cross reference the characters in the movie with a known manifest of the Titanic. I believe WIKI has some sort of reference with real compared to fake persons from the movie.

the actors weren't actually there. but celine dion was playing the woman who was actually on the titanic.

NO The people who were in Titanic are most probably all death by now :)

I Know three were for sure: Captain Smith (Captain of the Titanic)
Mr. Murdoch
Molly Brown (The nice millionaire)

Which version of the movie - the 1953 or the 1997 version?

None. They weren't born yet. Let's review the basics:

Titanic the maritime disaster: a real event

Titanic the movie: a movie
