We people watches many movies, but i never saw that type of movie in which people watched it so repeatedly. Still i see many people watching this movie again and again, more than 10 years has passed when that movie appeared, It also showed a highest success rate in the history. what was the reason behind it?

For me.....KATE WINSLET. She was hot! Especially in the scene where we first get to see her character, Rose, as she steps out of the car and looks up at the ship. I can watch that scene over and over! lol. All kidding aside, I think it was purely the technology that was used in re-creating the ship and all the special effects and stuff. Just simply amazing! The story of the Titanic has been told so many times, dating back to the 1940's, however there's never been so much technology available when it comes to the special effects. A lot of the success of this production was driven by the amount of hype too. You couldn't turn on the tv, look at a magazine or newspaper without seeing something about the film. As far as the story part of the movie goes, I loved the fact of the film opening with the "old" Rose and seeing what happened aboard ship through her eyes. Just a few reasons why I loved it so much.
