* Sinking time of Titanic, the ship: 2 hours, 40 minutes.

* Running time of Titanic, the movie: 3 hours, 14 minutes.

* Lenght of time it took to build the real Titanic: 26 months.

* Lenght of time it took to film the movie Titanic: 9 months.

* Cost to build the original Titanic: $7.5 million.

* The film's original budget: $110 million.

* The flick's final cost: $200 million, recouped at the box office in just 25 days.

* Capacity for Titanics 20 lifeboats-most of which left the ship partially filled: 1,178

* Number of Titanic life boats needed: 2,228

* Cost of Titanic's computer-generated scenes: $48 million.

* Second Officer Charles Herbert Lightoller, one of the few surviving crew members of the Titanic, went on to command a destroyer in World War 1. And in 1940 he took his own cabin-cruiser across the English Channel to rescue 130 soliders from the World War 2 battle at Dunkirk.

* The real-life Titanic's fourth smokestack was fake. Why? It made the ship look bigger and was actually used for ventilation.

* Three dogs survived the disaster. As the real ship began sinking, a passanger freed the pouches from their kennels.

* Many of the paintings used in the movie are authentic, such as Picassio's The Guitar Player, which was flown from the Musee National d'Art Moderne in paris. And most of the decor-from the carpet to the chandeliers-was reconstructed by or under the surpervision of the companies that furnished the real ship.

* Titanic star Gloria Stuart, who plays the elderly Rose, was in another movie 37 years ago about a sinking ship-Girl Overboard!

* After coming up with Jack Dawson, the name of Leonardo Dicapiro's character in the moie, director James Cameron discovered there had been a real-life crewmember named J.Dawson.

* When Jack is preparing to draw Rose in the flick, he tells her to: "Lie on that bed..uh, I mean couch." The line was scripted: "Lie on that couch." But Cameron liked the flubbed line and kept it.

* Although 1,523 lives were lost during the actual tragedy, no one drowned during the filming thanks to 30 lifeguards mixed among the extras.
