“為什麼取名為泰坦尼克号呢?”
“sheer size--stability, luxury and above all, strength”
“你可能會喜歡弗洛伊德對于男性尺寸執着心理的研究。”

電影的最後,rose從下往上仰望巨大的自由女神像,那自由之地美國終于賦予了一位沒落的英國貴族真正的“自由”。(一些意識形态小觀察

話說很好奇為什麼電影裡的兩艘船都默認被稱為“she”,所以查了一下資料,

1. 有人說是因為古代歐洲人以幸運女神的名字命名船隻,船隻與财富和夢想密切相關,所以感情深厚,it無法提現這種情感聯結(btw,真正的女人卻不能上船,因為會帶來不幸)

2. 找到一些黃色笑話,比如下面總是濕的;上船的都是男人等等…體現了一些惡俗的男性中心主義,我的愛船、我的愛車、我的愛人,世界以我為中心

3. 摘抄一段航運屆的經典注釋:

A ship is called a 'she' because there is always a great deal of bustle around her;

there is usually a gang of men about, she has a waist and stays;

it takes a lot of paint to keep her good looking;

it is not the initial expense that breaks you, it is the upkeep;

she can be all decked out;

it takes an experienced man to handle her correctly;

and without a man at the helm, she is absolutely uncontrolable

She shows her topsides, hides her bottom and, when cominginto port, always heads for the buoys.
