Ship Happened

Kickass doc tells it like it was

By Clay McNear

Published on December 27, 2007

Cabin boy Leo DiCaprio and society princess Kate Winslet sucking wind on the bow of the Titanic – yeah, that’ll happen. Director Stephen Low’s doc Titanica tells us what did happen, picking up the story where Titanic discoverer Robert Ballard left off. Narrated by Leonard Nimoy, Titanica offers the straight dope via enhanced archival images and razor-sharp footage of the ship on the sea bottom, gleaned from an HMI underwater lighting system that kicked ass on anything Ballard had to work with.
