In an interview with Vanity Fair, Cameron was asked directly, "Why doesn't Rose make room for Jack on the door?" To which he replied, "And the answer is very simple because it says on page 147 [of the script] that Jack dies.
The story says the door isn't large enough, that Jack gives up his spot for Rose, and that he dies. Any speculation, measurement, or experiment you carry out is irrelevant, at least according to Cameron.
Was there enough room on the door for Jack and Rose?
While there is enough room for “Jack and Rose to get on the raft, they're now both submerged in dangerous levels of freezing water,” Cameron observed. Footage shows most of the stunt duo's bodies under water in this scenario.
The only options are for one of them to die, or for both of them to die. Jack did the heroic thing by sacrificing himself. Director James Cameron himself has long maintained that the door could not have supported both characters and noted in a recent interview that that a recent forensic study also confirms this fact.
Rose loved Jack too much to let him possibly die, so stating she wouldn't get on before Jack meant they crew would HAVE to let Jack on if they wanted Rose to live. If she got on first they'd likely drag Jack away for space for more passengers. Why did Jack have to die in Titanic?
A "Titanic" Myth: Would Jack Have Survived if Rose Had Shared the Door?
Was Jack alive when Rose let him go?
This means that if Jack was dead when Rose pushed him under water, then he would have immediately floated back to the surface. But if he was unconscious, he would have breathed water into lungs and eventually sink, which is the case. This shows that Jack was in Stage 3, unconscious, and very much alive.
“Yes, he could have held on until the lifeboat arrived. Jack could have survived, but there are so many variables. I think Jack's logic was, 'I'm not going to do anything that would put Rose in danger. ' And that's totally in keeping with the character,” concludes James Cameron.
Although Rose changed her name to “Dawson” to honor Jack, used this name during her acting career, and ultimately revealed she never got over Jack, she moved on and got married at some point in her life.
Jack, the protagonist, is a five-year-old, and he is locked up in a narrow room with his mother. In this thesis explained that Jack has some psychological effects such as social anxiety disorder which is evidenced by how he looks very insecure being in crowded place and also frightened if Ma is not with him.
The family has to care for the hotel for the winter, but they cannot leave the mountainous area. In this isolation every day becomes the same for Jack as his writer's block becomes quotidian. The combination of isolation, monotony, creative frustration, and supernatural forces extract Jack's insanity.
It seems that if the couple had both used the door to keep just their upper bodies out of the water, and if Rose had given him her life jacket to help keep him warm, Jack would have had a much better chance at survival. "Jack might have lived, but there's a lot of variables," said Cameron.
It's possible that Jack's body sank because of the weight of his clothing and shoes, which would have been quite heavy when wet. Additionally, it could be due to the fact that Rose was holding onto him for so long - her grip may have kept him afloat longer than he would have otherwise stayed up.
Brie Larson plays Ma, and Jacob Tremblay plays her 5-year-old son, Jack. While it's unlikely this could carry over too well into the film adaptation, the book is told from Jack's perspective — so all we know is what he knows.
Co-hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman conducted their own experiment and concluded that both Jack and Rose could have shared the raft and survived, provided they propped their upper bodies upright and figured out how to attach Rose's life jacket underneath it to increase the buoyancy.
promise me you will survive....that you will never give up...not matter what happens... no matter how hopeless... promise me now, and never let go of that promise. ROSE: I promise.
Ma's mom and stepdad try to make conversation but Ma gets violently angry with her own father, demanding that he looks at his grandson but he can't because he is too uncomfortable (i.e., because Jack is the product of his daughter being raped by her abductor). She finally takes Jack upstairs.
Grandpa can't get past the fact that Jack exists because his daughter was kidnapped and raped. Jack is a product of rape, but his Ma doesn't love him any less. She prefers to think of Jack as a gift from God rather than the result of tragedy and abuse. But Grandpa can't look past that.
Ma defensively states that there “was no reason to stop” breastfeeding Jack inside of Room, but what she doesn't say is that there were many reasons to actually keep up with the practice, as it allowed Ma and Jack to sustain one another not just physiologically but emotionally.
Rose DeWitt Bukater is a fictional character from the film Titanic (1997). She is not a representation of, nor is she based on any past or present living person. As such she could not have children as she never existed. In the context of the film - she has a grand-daughter who accompanies here to the salvage ship.
The real Rose from Titanic, Beatrice Wood, led a fascinating life that features more than a few similarities to Rose. Like Rose, Beatrice was born into a privileged family which she rejected as a young adult, leaving her home and pursuing a more independent life.
Did Jack and Rose from the Titanic have a child? No, Rose married after Jack's death and had a child. Rose's adult granddaughter is with old Rose in the beginning and end of the movie. You do realize that Rose, Jack are entirely fictional characters, right?
The body of an adult male, whose personal identification revealed he was "J. Dawson," was found at sea after Titanic sank. Bodies were numbered in the order they were recovered. Dawson's body was number 227.
What does Jack mean when he says you wouldn't have jumped?
Rose does agree to climb over the railing after he convinces her to not jump, but she then slips and has to be rescued. So the fact that she was in danger out of pure accident he more likely would have worded it as "you wouldn't have fallen"
