Everything that happened on that fateful night of 1912 is minutely described..
We see there what passed aboard the cargo boat CALIFORNIAN which was a little more than 10 miles of the liner TITANIC which sank[f=white].
We also see one of the bakers who got drunk in front of the imminence of the wreck, who sank with the liner quite in the back and who was finally saved by a lifeboat...
Really a very intense movie which knew a very big success when it went out in 1958...
