Jack Didn't Love Rose: This Titanic Theory Totally Changes The Movie
James Cameron’s Titanic tells the story of the romance between Jack and Rose aboard the title ship, and while the movie tells a complete story, it has made way for a variety of theories, among them one that suggests Jack didn’t love Rose, thus completely changing Titanic. In 1997, James Cameron brought his most ambitious project at the time to life: Titanic, a disaster drama movie based on the real-life tragedy of the RMS Titanic in 1912.
Although Titanic took a real-life event as its base and many secondary characters are also based on real passengers of the ship, its main story is fictional, as well as its main couple. Titanic, then, tells the story of Rose DeWitt Bukater (Kate Winslet), a first-class young woman, and Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio), a third-class passenger, who over the course of four days meet, get to know each other, fall in love, and defend their romance from those who look down upon them, mostly Rose’s fiancé, Cal Hockley (Billy Zane), and her mother, Ruth (Frances Fisher). Rose and Jack’s romance is the core of Titanic, and while the movie tells their whole story, with a tragic ending as Jack died after the ship sank, there are many theories about their relationship.

Titanic is told by old Rose (Gloria Stuart) to treasure hunter Brock Lovett (Bill Paxton), his crew, and her granddaughter, who had never heard of Jack Dawson as his name wasn’t on the records of the ship. Now, a theory suggests that Jack wasn’t the good-hearted guy Rose described in her story, and he was actually a con artist and a thief who had other things in mind when he met Rose, completely unrelated to falling in love with her.
