Can a DVD be made mandatory viewing? If so, then everybody who will be heading to theaters to see Kate and Leo get all mushy with each other in the 3D rerelease of James Cameron’s Titanic should be made to watch the three films in this fascinating set. The first film, Death of a Dream, uses archival footage to show not only how the ship was built, but how just the creation of such a mammoth vessel changed the world. The Legend Lives On chronicles the sinking of the ship in a way that makes Cameron’s film pale in comparison. The final chapter, Titanic’s Achilles Heel, gives us new insight into what might have gone wrong that night, and how it could have been prevented.
