Trivia:
The car in which Jack and Rose make love, was a Renault owned by the Carter family. more
Goofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: By 1912 color photography was beginning to pass beyond the experimental stage; the Autochrome plate, for instance, had been introduced in 1907. While the general public, or even most photographers, would still hardly be likely to take pictures in color, the owner of the fabulous Heart of the Ocean diamond might well have wanted to record it for posterity, cost no object, in all its colorful glory. more
Quotes:

Brock Lovett: Thirteen meters; you should see it.
Brock Lovett: [seeing the shipwreck come into view for the first time] OK; take her up and over the bow rail.

FAQ

If Rose became an actress, wouldn't Cal or her mother have recognized her? And wouldn't Cal have tried to retrieve the diamond at that point?
What is the song they sing in church?
Rose was rescued from the water, and I believe she said 6 people were rescued by the lifeboats from the water. I know in reality there were people rescued, but did Rose say 6 because it was the actual amount, or did they add one to the actual number to include Rose?

A Movie People Love To Hate, 11 January 2003
Author: Kworb from Netherlands

As with most things in life, people always force their own opinions to be different so they can feel good about themselves. Titanic is another example. This is a great movie. It's not boring, and the storyline might be cliché but it's still beautiful and really sad, and almost got me crying. The only movie that made me cry was Bambi, when I was 4 years old.

Apparently, people are only allowed to like the second part of this movie, when everyone is dying. And even though that part is in my opinion one of the best moments in the history of movies, the first part is also really good, a gorgeous tale about a romance that couldn't be. It might not add up to the historical facts, but that doesn't matter. If you want to see what really happened, then go watch some documentary about it on the Discovery channel. This is not a historical movie, and the director is allowed to let things happen differently than they really could have happened.

This movie is an 8 at least, and one of the best movies of all time. It's not in the IMDB top 250, which is quite sad. It has great acting, great effects, and is really enjoyable to watch. Unfortunately, people love to comment negatively about something good, because they are unable to think for themselves and have a need to be accepted in their 'clique'. I love this movie, and am not afraid to admit it. 10/10
