Titanic (1943)

In a bizarre blending of art and politics, the 1912 Titanic disaster was turned by German filmmakers-working under the watchful eye of Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels-into a drama filled with attacks on British society, some fictitious German crew members, and an anti-capitalism theme. Footage of the liner's sinking was later swiped for 1958's "A Night to Remember." Hans Nielsen, Sybille Schmitz, Otto Wernicke star. 85 min. Standard; Soundtrack: German; Subtitles: English; newsreel footage; photo gallery; theatrical trailer; White Star Line promotional film. In German with English subtitles.
