If we’re honest, wondering whether or not Jack could have squeezed onto that floating door with Rose and hence survived the sinking of the Titanic, therefore potentially turning literally the saddest film EVER into the happiest has never entirely been off our minds.
Like - we know he tried once to get on it, but SURELY it’s big enough for the two of them?
Imagine if he’d have survived and they’d have spent their WHOLE ENTIRE LIVES TOGETHER.
But now James Cameron, the film’s director, has waded into this quite frankly very vocal argument.
And he’s not happy.
"We're gonna go there? Look, it's very, very simple: you read page 147 of the script and it says, 'Jack gets off the board and gives his place to her so that she can survive,' It's that simple," he said to the Daily Beast.
"His best choice was to keep his upper body out of the water and hope to get pulled out by a boat or something before he died.
"The script says Jack dies, he has to die. Maybe we screwed up. The board should have been a tiny bit smaller. But the dude's going down."
He exists now only in our memories, we guess.
