Parallelisms of Titanic and George

It is an open secret that the folks at Disney enjoy recycling the basic plot of a young girl who is dissatisfied with life at home and strikes forth in a new adventurous direction.  Belle in "Beauty and the Beast", "The Little Mermaid" Ariel, and the non-historical "Pocahontas" easily come to mind.  Who knows what we will see in the new Disney animation "Mulan", the story of a young Chinese girl...,.

But sometimes people borrow from Disney.
