Rose was just a whore
I watch this movie now and Rose is just a whore cheating on her Fiance....

shareShe'd rather be Jack's whore than Cal's wife.
I intend to live forever.
So far, so good.
shareI do not think that is something to be proud of.
shareSorry you see it that way.
I'd rather be Jack's whore than Cal's wife.
Why? Jack wasn't much of a catch. He did not have much of a future. As much as I dislike Ruth, she certainly had a point about last "living a rootless existence". It was probably best that he didn't live and that Rose met the guy she eventually married. That's assuming she stayed with Jack, which I doubt.
It was probably best she didn't stay with Cal after she pulled her stunt.Surely Cal would have shown her what true misery was and she would have prayed for her boring rich life she previously feared, that would have been too poetic though.I do not understand why Cal wanted her after that.

great post flowerchild completely agree.
shareHmm, a choice I doubt many people would choose.But in all honesty being Jacks whore was very fitting. I wouldn't want her after she rolled with a guy from third class that she met a few nights prior. There was a reason they had health screenings for the third class before boarding the ship. Yuck!

Having sex with Cal would've kinda made her a "whore", since she was marrying him for his money.
It's funny how some people can't put down women without resorting to sexual insults. Rose was a cheat. Rose was an idiot. Rose was selfish, etc. Nope. It also has to be "slut" or "whore".
Predictable.
Rose was NOT a whore. Besides, if had to choose between Billy Zane and Leonardo DiCaprio, I Would choose Leo.
Laugh while you can, Monkey Boy!
Rose was NOT a whore.
Thank you?
shareA whore is a woman who gets paid for sex. If Rose had sex with Cal, she would've been more of a whore than if she had sex with Jack, who had no way to pay her.

Now can we put all these stupid "Rose Was A Whore" & "Cal Was The Victim" discussions about a couple of fictional characters from 19 year old movie to rest and move on...
Cal clearly didn't want Rose as a friend and a life partner
Was it? If he absolutely no concern for her feelings why did he even bother noticing her depression and asking her to let him into her heart. Damn, even the freaking writer said he loved her.
...concern for her feelings...
Damn, even the freaking writer said he loved her.
It would be a waste of time for me to write a rebuttal highlighting the points(all of them) you are wrong about. You have obviously decicded to put your fingers in your ears and block out reasonable arguments showing what a petulant child you are. I mean, your go so far as to challenge the freaking writer, directer and prodducer of the film as if you know more about the film than he does.
shareMurphed well they have a point. If the writer actually believes that Cal loved Rose in the traditional sense than that writer really is an idiot. At the end of the day it comes down to the person who write somethings opinion on what a subject is. So if the writer actually believes that Cals way of treating a woman is truly caring about them in that time frame they're going to write it that way for the movie which is what they did. Does this make it a fact just because it's in the movie? Hell no it doesn't so yes we can in fact challenge the writers of a movie.
shareDamovieplayer Well said brother
shareI suppose it shouldn't be surprising to see this stupif misogynistic *beep* here. Even fictional characters aren't safe from the crazed trolls.
shareDo you have something to contribute to this discussion?
shareLMAO...Finally, someone with a voice of reason!
shareRose was a whore but not for the reasons everyone thinks.
She was a whore because she was bought off by Cal for his money
THATs why she is a whore.
Hmm, then there were a lot of whores of the Era. I would say she was a slut more than a whore, jack had no money.
shareBut she wasn't bought off with his money, that's the whole point of the movie. She wanted nothing to do with him or his money. He was still alive at the end of the movie and she took off and left him far behind her.

It doesn't matter what she didn't want,she still voluntarily used his money to buy paintings and clothes.
shareClothes and paintings she lost when the ship went down, and she left the means to get more behind when she took off with nothing, except a diamond she never told anyone she had and ended up throwing into the ocean. It's rather difficult to say she wanted things when she hid rather than step out and tell Cal she had survived. She walked off the Carpathian with nothing but a man's overcoat and she made something of her life without Cal.
You called this character a whore because she made love with one man that she fell in love with once. If you are not married I sincerely hope you are a virgin, if you are married I sincerely hope you have never even cast your eyes on anyone but your spouse, Remember if you look at someone, no matter who and think they would be nice to have sex with them...you have committed sin with that person in your mind. It is so easy to slip into whoredom, no matter what sex you are. Remember also a whore is not necessarily a prostitute and a prostitute is not really a whore. Also men can be prostitutes as well as women. I also don't think you really know what the term 'whore' means, it doesn't mean having sex with someone for cash. That's just a job, not a vocation. The modern definition of 'whore' means someone who has sex with anyone but you.

I call the character a slut because she slept with a man while engaged to another.
She was a selfish, inconsiderate skank. Her actions were not one of a decent lady but a scandalous whore.
Rose had already told Cal she didn't want to marry him,
it's not her fault he thought the bargain struck between him and her mother entitled him to own Rose. Rose was not his slave and she was free to have sexual intercourse with whoever she wanted to.
Oh my word, pardon me while I stop choking
Who on earth are you to set standards of decency?A judgemental prig with the gall to think it's up to you to set the world's standards?
Cal had no qualms at attempting to buy Rose. Let us take a look at who is really selfish and inconsiderate in the film, Rose's mother and Cal. Both of whom had no qualms at subjecting a young woman to a marriage whose prospect she loathed and didn't know that slavery was illegal. I really worry about your so-called standards. They seem to be more of the 'I own you so do what I say' variety' than 'I respect your autonomy and free will.' Not even God subscribes to the 'I own you' one.

Really now, when?
You sound like a bitter washed-up shrew with shady past.
Lol, I see what I'm dealing with now, just another troll. There is no scene were she attempts to end her engagement nor is their a scene were she gets up and runs from the table. Trying to get in some trolling before the boards are taken down?
shareI saw the movie, I'm fairly sure her attempt to throw herself overboard would qualify as her breaking off the engagement her mother and Cal forced onto her. In your eyes Rose is condemned for falling in love and Cal is admired. You pay no attention to his indifference to the deaths of the 3rd Class passengers and his attempt to have Jack murdered. Ugh, you are disgusting.

Also, when she tried to run back to Jack that was down below, she said "I'd rather be his whore than your wife..." Pretty sure, that means she broke it off with him. Even after she said that, he still held her back and said "I said no!"
I still don't understand why people seem to think if Rose simply called off the engagement, Cal would've been fine with it. They honestly believe Cal would've totally submitted to the fact that he lost Rose and there's nothing he can do about it. When he even said himself "I always win Jack, one way or another" Riiiiiighhhhtttt
I think Murpheddddd admires Cal because he sees a lot of himself in the character. Of course this is only my impression formed by what he has said on this board.
Thank you for bolstering my opinion that he is very much a minority of one.👍

1. I would not take it as a compliment having that other airhead flowerbitc...child supporting you. I suppose the characters willingness to screw a guy she knew less than a day brings back fond memories for you. And my factual take on the film is hardly one in the minority.
shareI suppose the characters willingness to screw a guy she knew less than a day brings back fond memories for you.
Ah,disjointed and random ramblings of an idiot. But if I need to get laid I'll just take a number and stand at long line in front of your home...I'll bring rope in case I fall in.
shareWell at least we are not pretending to be Holier than God and that we are the last word in what is right and wrong. I'll leave you with one of my favourite quotes...
Matthew 7:1-3King James Version (KJV)
7 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
John 8:7King James Version (KJV)
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
People can fall in love in an instant and God gave us the gift of being close to the people we love when we 'make love' with them. Rose loved and was loved throughout her life. Poor Cal never loved anyone and when he lost the only thing that he though gave him any kind of worth (his money) he committed the worse sin he could have, he killed himself. Now that really was a sin. Rose didn't need Cal's millions to have a good life, Cal couldn't face life without those same millions. I think in the end Rose probably forgave Cal, pity he committed the one unforgivable sin.
And yes, your take on the film is very much in a minority of one.

You are either on drugs or have the mentality and intelligence of a mentally challenged 12 year old. You do know these are fictional characters, so anything you mention about who loved Rose or if she forgave him is irrelevant. I know probably have trouble separating reality and fiction, but only the things that actually occurred in the film and reflect the time period are the only things that count. Now I am sure you have some customers waiting for your services. Also, I recommend you get some knee pads, a women your age doesn't need anymore ailments.
shareOf course you believe that pile of cr*p you just posted. You can't look at yourself in the mirror and face what a huge jerk you are, not to mention idiot hypocrite, so you have to blame me and the rest of the world for not ignoring the faults in your personality that we all see.
You are just sad and pathetic, more to be pitied than anything else.

I believe Murph is a "she" (not like it matters) but yeah, I wouldn't waste your time with her/him. Her/his logic is to insult anyone that doesn't agree with Cal's actions instead of having a civilized conversation as to why they disagree with her. But don't feel too threatened, her best source of insults come from using your username (observe her response to you and you'll see).
shareHa, the irony.
shareYou shouldn't use big words when you don't know what they mean. Invest in a dictionary.

What's sad is that you 1. Think irony is a big word 2. Do not know the definition, yet are chiding me for apparently misusing it. Wow, you are certainly dumb bitch.

You have to be sorry for Murphedddddddd, he/she is probably lonely and pathetic. Strange using the name of a flower as an insult. I suppose I should be flattered that he/she knows there are other flowers besides roses. Irises are my favourite flower and the day I joined IMDB and had to pick a username I had just finished planting over a hundred irises that came up in July. My username is a reminder of a nice day in the garden. Somehow I don't think Murphedddddd ever had a nice day in the garden.

A simple yes would have been sufficient, but thanks for providing more evidence to verify my suspicions.You even posted your disjointed rant three times just in case I missed it, how considerate of you. So do live in a nursing home or at home with a live in nurse?
shareI wouldn't dream of taking your very necessary carer away from you. Luckily I have a nice home, a loving husband who takes care of all my needs and a nice garden. I know it's hard not having a sex life outside of your four fingers and thumb, but try and live with it.
And try walking in the park, take a look at some flowers once in a while.

Ok then, keep solidifying my suspicions.
shareWho cares about your suspicions? People generally don't care about the snoopy busybody who peers around her/his curtains to check up on what the neighbours are doing instead of living a useful life.

shareYeah, I'm not quite certain what dementia has to do with anything in regards to your last comment. Murph is just trying to sound smart.
shareYou wouldn't understand, yet you can make sense of the three identical rambling replies the other idiot posted? Birds of a feather I guess.Why is it the two of you seem to think that such commonalities of irony and knowing what dementia is implies high intellect? Are you THAT intellectually challenged?
shareI don't think I mentioned dementia. I wouldn't as I used to work with dementia patients and I wouldn't insult them by saying Murph suffers from that tragic illness. He suffers from something much worse, an arrogant belief that his opinion is the only thing that matters in the world. It's so difficult for people like that to get by when they realise that they are an object of pity and quite often...abhorrence.

Bravo! (Applause!)

Eh, idiots agreeing with idiots.
shareNo, smart people agreeing with smart people.
And you are a judgemental old creep. Pbbbbbb! (Bronx cheer).
(I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.)
Sigh, your replies tell a different story. Belligerent, overly emotional rants punctuated with juvenile sayings are not actions that invoke intellect.You and the other rejects like you sound like hypocritical, uneducated residents of some trailor park. You speak without any understanding of the time period or human interaction while ignoring the elements that invalidate your superficial(at best) understanding or lack of understanding.
shareAnd you are a nincompoop.
Buh bye! 😛
(I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.)
Shut up you dont know wtf your talking about thats first off.
she didnt wanna be with Cal from the beginning it was an arranged marriage..rose was 17 years old she wanted to have fun she fell inlove with jack...someone she was able to be herself with. She had to pretend to be happy around Cal. it was totally different. THINGS HAPPEN..
i bet you $100 youve cheated on someone.
It eras not an arranged marriage, she could have rejected the proposal if she wanted to. This was the Edwardian period not the Middle Ages. Also, when the heck was she appear happy? From the very beginning she was behaving erratically with her insulting people for no reason and being aloof towards Cal, she even when he gave her the diamond. Lastly, there was no love, it was lust, convenience and shared interests. She didn't know Jack nor he Rose as they only knew each other for less that 48 hours.
shareshe was 17 you can tell her mother was a pain in the ass and her mother tells her when she's buttoning her dress about cal and his money and you can see rose was unhappy the only time she was happy happened to be around jack . .. he knew she wouldn't jump (Idk) besides jack was a cutie . She was in her own words" poor little rich girl " .. she was around rich ppl all her life and jack wasn't rich and she took a like to him maybe she hated being part of her family and was curious about a life like the one jack had .. Idk I can't speak for her lol it's just a movie but I def don't think she was a whore !
shareHowever I thought she was a b*tch cause she made jack draw a picture of her in cal's necklace nude . BUT what do you want she happened to be a bratt and she probably thought that that was funny but remember she was only 17 yeads old. The scene where her and mother were arguing about rose being selfish ( when her mother stared at her cause I guess she realized) kinda proved rose was held down by her mother all her life .. you can pretty much tell she hated being at dinner with her mother and cal ' but she had so much fun when jack took her to do the Irish dance you can see she was actually happy . Idt I would've been happy with cal either he was too serious and he wasn't fun at all... he thought women belonged in the kitchen kinda like this moron who made this post .. no girl wants a guy like that . Roses mother was a selfish biotech which led to her daughter being pretty much miserable
