The Real-Life Inspiration for Rose From Titanic
Depicting a fictional love story amidst a real-life tragedy, director James Cameron’s Titanic (1997) mixes both historical and imagined elements, as well as people. Some characters, like Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jack Dawson, are purely fictional, while others, like Kathy Bates’ portrayal of the “Unsinkable” Molly Brown, were based on real individuals.

Kate Winslet portrayed protagonist Rose DeWitt Bukater, the love interest of DiCaprio’s character.
