“为什么取名为泰坦尼克号呢?”
“sheer size--stability, luxury and above all, strength”
“你可能会喜欢弗洛伊德对于男性尺寸执着心理的研究。”

电影的最后,rose从下往上仰望巨大的自由女神像,那自由之地美国终于赋予了一位没落的英国贵族真正的“自由”。(一些意识形态小观察

话说很好奇为什么电影里的两艘船都默认被称为“she”,所以查了一下资料,

1. 有人说是因为古代欧洲人以幸运女神的名字命名船只,船只与财富和梦想密切相关,所以感情深厚,it无法提现这种情感联结(btw,真正的女人却不能上船,因为会带来不幸)

2. 找到一些黄色笑话,比如下面总是湿的;上船的都是男人等等…体现了一些恶俗的男性中心主义,我的爱船、我的爱车、我的爱人,世界以我为中心

3. 摘抄一段航运届的经典注释:

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.
