This footage from the A.P. archive begins with the R.M.S.
Titanic moored in Belfast Lough prior to leaving for Southampton. The
Titanic
is shown at sea where icebergs abound, and there is a shot of Captain
Smith on the bridge pre-disaster. The remaining minutes show shots from
before and after the tragedy in fascinating stages. The
Carpathia
is shown at sea with rescued passengers on board, there are various
closeups of rescued crew and passengers on land, the families of the
passengers are seen lined up outside the cruise line's office to hear
word about their loved ones who were aboard the
Titanic, and more.
