TITANIC - on the outside of the ship
The Titanic steams towards us, in the dusk light, as if lit by the
embers of a giant fire. As the ship looms, FILLING FRAME, we push
in on the bow. Jack is there, right at the apex of the bow railing,
his favourite spot. He closes his eyes, letting the chill wind clear
his head. Jack hears her voice, behind him...
Rose
Hello, JACK.
He turns and she is standing there.
Rose
I changed my mind.
He smiles at her, his eyes drinking her in. Her hair blows wildly
about her face.
Rose
Fabrizio said you might be up--
(interrupting her) Jack
Sssshh. Come here.
He puts his hands on her waist. As if he is going to kiss her.
Jack
Close your eyes.
He takes her two hands and raises them until she is standing with
her arms out-stretched on each side. Rose is going along with him.
When he lowers his hands, her arms stay up... like wings.
Jack
Okay. Open them.
Rose gasps. There is nothing in her field of vision but water. It's
like there is no ship under them at all, just the two of them soaring.
Rose
I'm flying!
She leans forward, arching her back. He puts his hands on her waist
to steady her.

JACK's singing
Come Josephine in my flying machine
Rose closes her eyes, feeling herself floating weightless far above
the sea. They kiss, slowly and tremulously, and then with building
passion.
In the CROW'S NEST, high above and behind them, lookout FREDERICK
FLEET nudges his mate, REGINALD LEE, pointing down at the figures
in the bow.
Fleet
Wish I had those bleedin' binoculars.
Jack and Rose, embracing at the bow rail, DISSOLVE SLOWLY AWAY,
leaving the ruined bow of the WRECK.
