We’re Still Relieved That Titanic Didn’t Use This Alternate Ending

It’s been almost 20 years since Titanic was released, and - amid debates about whether or not there was room on that door - people are still talking about the film’s alternate ending.

While the actual ending saw Rose returning to the Titanic after keeping her promise to Jack, and dying at a grand old age of 100 (after living a full and happy life), James Cameron also filmed a stand-off between the old lady Rose and Brock.

This ending imagined what would have happened if Rose had been interrupted as she tried to throw the Heart of the Ocean into the sea, and while we can see its merit, we’re very, very glad that Cameron opted for the finish that he did.

Check the alternate out here, and see if you agree with us:

We just can’t help but think that Rose throwing the necklace into the ocean - without anyone ever knowing that she’d had it all those years - was more effective than that argument would have been..

Which ending do you prefer? Let us know in the comments!
