April 10th, 1912 - RMS Titanic departs from the port of Southampton, England and begins her maiden voyage. She was the largest ocean liner at the time, superseding her sister ship, the RMS Olympic in size and luxury. Commanding the liner was Edward J. Smith, a veteran captain of the White Star Line.

On board were some of the most prominent figures of society, such as millionaire John Jacob Astor IV, journalist William T. Stead, feminist Helen Churchill Candee, and actress Dorothy Gibson. Also aboard was Thomas Andrews, the ship’s architect and J. Bruce Ismay, managing director of the White Star Line.

APRIL 10-11th 1912 - TITANIC SETS SAIL

Shortly after 12.00 noon, Titanic sets sail from Southampton, beginning her maiden voyage, and heading first for Cherbourg in Normandy, north-western France. Titanic arrives in Cherbourg, with the tender ships SS Nomadic and SS Traffic reaching the ship – anchored in the outer harbour – at 6.35pm. With the newly embarking passengers safely transferred from the tender ships to Titanic (142 1st Class, 30 2nd Class and 102 3rd Class), and with a smaller number disembarking (15 1st Class and 9 2nd Class), at around 8.10pm the ship leaves Cherbourg, headed for Queenstown on the south coast of County Cork, Ireland. At 11.30am, Titanic drops anchor at Roches Point outer anchorage, in Queenstown, County Cork – her final port of call on the maiden journey to New York. With the tender ships PS Ireland and PS America having transported the 123 passengers joining at Queenstown (7 2nd Class and 113 3rd Class) and collecting 7 passengers who were disembarking, at 1.30pm Titanic raises anchor and sets off to cross the Atlantic for America.

Why do I care so much more about the officers, who had a combined total of maybe 15 minutes of screentime in a 3 hour movie, than I do about Jack and Rose 🤣🤣🤣

so i just learned more about conte di savoia and her design and stuff and this is honestly my honest reaction

"The lovely idea buried at the heart of Roman Holiday is that relationships don’t have to last forever to be meaningful. It’s the antithesis of the message that fairy tales and rom-coms often sell us, and it rings all the truer for it. Joe and Ann’s perfect Roman day wasn’t enough to upend their lives over. But it was transformative for both of them.

"More than anything, Roman Holiday is about love’s influence as a maturing force. Ann gains the confidence she needs to assert herself more in her carefully managed royal life, while Joe comes to realize there are principles that matter more to him than money. It’s an ending that’s romantic for its realistic poignancy, rather than its wish-fulfillment fantasy—the sort of perfectly calibrated finale that many romantic comedies aim for, but few actually manage to achieve."
