Rather than watch the 1976 classic, we have viewed the newer version which critics really didn't like all that much. It is useful because it follows a very conventional plot line for a disaster movie. The action quickly moves into the disaster itself with the first major disaster sequence taking place within 15 MINUTES!!
Look through the information you have been given and think about how the movie meets the genre conventions. Later movies we will watch will have different approaches to the genre 'recipe' so making notes on this now will help you when it comes to the exam.
You should have:
1. A colour copy of the DVD cover
2. A cast list
3. A genre conventions sheet
4. A plot outline
5. A plot outline for TITANIC
Think about how TITANIC and POSEIDON differ in terms of narrative - how are the plots TOLD differently?
