"It's a movie," he says, "about a necklace. Well, the necklace was on a ship, brought there by Kate Winslett's character -- let's call her Rose1. A big ocean liner. Well, big for its time. I think current cruise ships dwarf it, but at the time, it was one of a kind. ...you know, we're responsible for cruises. Oh, let's put hundreds of people in a confined space and let them eat and drink as much as they want and then give them seasickness-- Anyway, we weren't responsible for the Titanic tragedy. That was all down to human engineering. And the iceberg."
