Should have.

It is pretty amazing how many people say 'of' instead of 'have' these days, isn't it? :) I'm no grammar police, but this is quite astonishing. English is not my first language, but I would never even think about doing that mistake... It's quite fascinating really.

Especially the last 10 minutes, just beautiful.

It won 5 Oscars, so maybe they thought that was enough. I completely agree with you, though. This movie is a rare masterpiece, including the cinematography.

That's no good excuse, look at how many titanic won(and how many did it deserve).

[–] halomaniac88 8 years ago

Titanic is overrated it is decent but not best picture material
