I haven't watched Schindler's List or Braveheart, so cannot comment on them.
Most Titanic movies were filmed as documentaries and every possible detail was
looked after to maintain historical accuracy. The latest Titanic movie was a love
story primarily which happened to be aboard the Titanic. Even in this movie you
do not see stupid mistakes as there has been in Day of the Roses. For example,
they didn't use any old plates, they exactly re-created the original plates.
