S.O.S. Titanic

S.O.S. Titanic is a 1979 drama disaster television movie that depicts the doomed 1912 maiden voyage of RMS Titanic from the perspective of three distinct groups of passengers in first, second and third class. Produced by EMI Films, the script, written by James Costigan, was based at least in part on survivor Lawrence Beesley's book The Loss of The SS Titanic: Its Story and Its Lessons, by One of the Survivors. The all star cast included David Janssen, Ian Holm, David Warner, Helen Mirren and Cloris Leachman. Directed by William Hale (credited as Billy Hale) with soundtrack by Howard Blake, it is the first Titanic film to be filmed and released in colour, not counting the 1964 musical The Unsinkable Molly Brown.
