“ Some stories are timeless. In celebration of the 25th anniversary, please join us in experiencing Titanic in remastered 4K 3D. Opening February 10th in theaters. “ – James Cameron

On the occasion of its 25th anniversary and a few days before Valentine's Day, James Cameron's masterpiece Titanic is back in theaters in a restored 3D HDR and HFR version. This will offer an outstanding image and sound quality to the spectators and will allow them to rediscover as never before - and on the big screen - the mythical couple formed by Rose and Jack. Symbol of the transgression of forbidden love (everything separates our heroes, except their youth and their unwavering affection), Ttianic is one of those rare films that you can watch over and over again without ever getting tired of it...
