Released in 1997, Titanic It is one of the most important films in the history of cinema. The romance between Jack (Leonardo Dicaprio) and Rose (Kate Winslet), which takes place in the context of the sinking of the ship that gives its name to the film, was a source of deep emotion for millions of viewers around the world. And the feature film made by James Cameron It not only swept the box office, but also the Oscars, winning numerous statuettes, including Best Picture and Best Director. For all this it is that Titanic It is a true masterpiece and its fans never cease to be interested in any new anecdote that arises about its making process. And in a recent note, Winslet made a confession linked to a very important moment in the plot.
Aboard the Titanic, Jack and Rose live a passionate romance, which begins with an iconic kiss. However, filming that moment was not as idyllic as what was seen on screen. “My God, he’s such a romantic, isn’t he? “It doesn’t surprise me that all the young girls in the world wanted to be kissed by Leo DiCaprio,” Winslet commented in a note about his experience in the film.. And about that scene, she revealed: “We kept doing that kiss, and I was wearing a lot of white makeup, and when we had to color correct both of us between takes, I always ended up looking like I sucked on a candy bar because her makeup I ended up getting my face dirty.”
Due to the amount of makeup on both of them, the tones mixed and Winslet ended up with her face dyed a dirty color, which required them to repeat the kiss over and over again. “God, it was a real disaster,” the British woman recalled with humor, adding: “It was a nightmare. Leo couldn’t stop laughing, and we had to repeat everything about four times, because James Cameron wanted a very specific type of lighting for that momentbecause obviously, the sunset kept changing the light in the place where we were.”
To make matters worse, the place where they both had to film that scene was not the most comfortable, according to the actress: “We had to climb some stairs to get into position. The hair and makeup people couldn’t get there easily. So I had both of their makeup, brushes and sponges hidden and, between takes, I was basically the one retouching our faces.” Despite those awkwardnesses, Kate explained that it was a lot of fun and that they always ended up “laughing and covered in each other’s makeup.”
During an interview with Porter magazine, the protagonist of Mare Of Easttown She opened up and recalled how uncomfortable she felt with her fame after the release of James Cameron’s epic romantic tragedy in 1997. “I felt like I had to look a certain way or be a certain thing and how the intrusion of the media was so important at that time, my life was pretty unpleasant,” Winslet admitted.
“Journalists always said: ‘After Titanic ‘You could have done anything, yet you chose to do these little projects’… And I was like, ‘Yeah, you can bet anything I did!’ Do you know why? Because being famous is horrible,” he added. Despite the unpleasant aspects that fame entails, today the artist has learned to live with everything and she feels that “it is not a burden, or anything like that.” She also became friends with the feature film that catapulted her to international fame. “Titanic continues to bring people enormous amounts of joy,” he continued, joking: “The only time I think ‘Now hide’ is when we’re on a boat,” he said with a laugh.
A few months ago, she also referred to that same topic in another podcast called Happy Sad Confused. “Apparently I was too fat. Why were they so mean to me? They were very bad. “I wasn’t even fat.” said the actress Avatar: the way of water, film in which he met the director of Titanic, James Cameron. According to Winslet, the pressure they put on her to have a supposedly perfect body led her to a crisis about which she currently decides not to remain silent.
