Rose and Jack from Titanic?

Question: Rose and Jack from Titanic!?

I was just wondering if Rose and Jack were actual people!. also, if they weren't real, then did anything similar happen on the Titanic to people that just had different names!? I've been wondering this for a while!. Thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Rose and Jack were invented for the movie!. However their story was based on actual events between a steerage passenger and a lady!. Google it for more info :-)Www@QuestionHome@Com

They are fictional characters!. I think the whole love plot was made up as well!. The nearest real person to share a name with one of the characters was a Mr!. Joseph Dawson, from Ireland!. He perished in the sinking of the real Titanic!. His grave bears the name 'J!. Dawson', leading many people to think that there was a real Jack Dawson, as portrayed in the film!.

The incident was "true"!. The characters Jack and Rose played were "fictional"!. What happened to them was very much a true event to those that actually did drown!. And while no one knows what conversations those people had with their loved ones before they drowned (like Jack and Rose had while Jack slowly froze to death in the water), it would be feasible to presume there were "similar" conversations like theirs that were spoken in their final moments together!.

It was a great movie, huh!?!Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Titanic was an ocean liner owned by the White Star Line and built at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland!. April 14, 1912, during her maiden voyage, Titanic struck an iceberg, and sank two hours and forty minutes later!. 1517 people died, but 706 others survived the accident!. It has been the subject of a number of books and movies - based on a real event!. James Cameron's version was another fictional account of a true story!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH

this is why I hate it when real events become the backdrop for hollywood!.!.!.

NO JACK AND ROSE WERE NOT REAL PEOPLE!.!.!.!.!.
There was a Jack on board , by the same name BUT IT WAS PURE COINCIDENCE and they didn't find out about it Until after the movie was in production!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

SOME of the characters were actual portrayals of REAL PEOPLE ( such as the character played by the actor that plays Victor in the Young and the Restless !.!. AND the Unsinkable Molly Brown)

But Jack and Rose , as the characters DID NOT EXIST !.!. they were FICTIONAL!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, they were created specifically for the movie!. While real people who were actually on the Titanic did appear in the movie, it's two main characters had to be invented as the events surrounding them aboard the ship could not be proven to have actually occured!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No the characters themselves were made up, however the scene where that old couple decide to stay together (instead of the wife getting on a life boat) because she says she's been with him for x amount of years and will not leave him now, and then they go lie down in their bed and just wait!.!.!.!.that part is true!.!.!.!.sad and beatiful =']Www@QuestionHome@Com

I understand that they are fictional characters!. I suspect that something like that may have happened, but it would not have been easy with the strict separation of classes at that time!.
Hope that helps!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, they weren't, hun! They are only fiction characters from the movie!. It could be a Rose and a Jack as passangers of the Titanic, but as lovers!? no!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, they are completely made up characters, that somehow convinced women everywhere that the terrible tragedy of all those people freezing and drowning was romantic!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
