TitanicThe first Best Picture Academy Award winner to be directed, written, co-produced and co-edited by the same person (James Cameron).
At $200 million, the movie cost more than the Titanic itself. The cost to construct the ship in 1910-1912 was £1.5 million, equivalent to $7.5 million at the time and about $120 to $150 million in 1997 dollars.
Due to the long theatrical run of the movie, Paramount had to send out replacement reels to theaters that had literally worn out their copies.
