OLD ROSE

A screenplay character in Titanic (1997).

Sample dialogue

I saw my whole life as if I'd already lived it... an endless parade of parties and cotillions, yachts and polo matches... always the same narrow people, the same mindless chatter. I felt like I was standing at a great precipice, with no one to pull me back, no one who cared... or even noticed.
scene 32, source scene 61 — INT. FIRST CLASS DINING SALOON - NIGHT
You mean, did we "do it"?
scene 71, source scene 106 — INT. KELDYSH / IMAGING SHACK
Of course his gift was only to reflect light back onto himself, to illuminate the greatness that was Caledon Hockley. It was a cold stone... a heart of ice.
scene 38, source scene 67 — INT. ROSE'S BEDROOM - NIGHT
That was the last time I ever saw him. He married, of course, and inherited his millions. The crash of 28 hit his interests hard, and he puta pistol in his mouth that year. His children fought over the scraps of his estate like hyenas, or so I read.
scene 191, source scene 300 — EXT. DECK / CARPATHIA - DAY
Well, I wasn't the first teenage girl to get seduced in the backseat of a car, and certainly not the last, by several million. He had such fine hands, artists' hands, but strong too... roughened by work. I remember their touch even now.
scene 86, source scene 124 — INT. HOLD #2

It was the ship of dreams... to everyone else. To me it was a slave ship, taking me back to America in chains.

I don't even have a picture of him. He exists now only in my memory.
