After touching on some analysis of Clive Cussler's 1976 bestseller Raise the Titanic  in my last regular episode, I decided to watch its 1980 film adaptation (though I feared it, to be honest). I'm so glad I did. Buckle up, because there's a lot to unpack here, not least of which is the image of a rusticled and mangled (but triumphant) Titanic finally arriving in New York Harbor by tugboat tow 70 years after it was originally due. I unpack everything here, from Russian subplots and gendered dialogue to casting woes. Let me know what you think.
