Hi guys! This blog today is about comparing Titanic and Revolutionary Road. I have included some similarities and differences.
Both films have Kate Winslet, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kathy Bates in them.

In both films they mention Paris - in Titanic you see Rose looking at Jack's drawings he drew on French women in Paris and then in Revolutionary Road April wants to move to Paris to become an actress.

Titanic is a very romantic film and Rose and Jack are clearly deeply in love, Rose says to Jack "When the ship docks, I'm getting off with you" so this shows she is going to leave Cal for Jack. However in Revolutionary Road, Frank and April DID love each other but then later on life they gradually started hating each other. They were in a difficult and violent marriage - I found it quite hard to watch because I love Rose and Jack's love.

Revolutionary Road
In Revolutionary Road April dies and then in Titanic Jack dies.
Titanic's genre is romantic and Revolutionary Road's is drama
Revolutionary Road is set in the late 1940's whereas Titanic is set in 1912 (28 years apart)
