A Movie of "Titanic" Proportions

In this review published in the Chicago Sun-Times in 1997, Roger Ebert explains his feelings about Titanic. He opens his review by calling the Titanic itself a "great iron Sphinx." His entire introductory paragraph is about the Titanic ship. Ebert never ceases to say extremely good things about James Cameron and his masterpeice of a film. He explains the characters of the film and goes more into depth about the film. He does not dismiss this movie as a flop but as a work of art by giving it a full 4 stars.
