Neither are sea shanties. Fair enough, I bow to your knowledge after looking up the definition.

Seen Bellowhead twice ... such incredible energy.
It is nice to start a post, hear disagreement and opposing opinions, and yet no rancour don't you think ?

Never seen the film ... thought it was in bad taste but I assume it acknowledges a tragic historical event.
So not my taste but perhaps a suitable memorial to the dead, and man's insignificance in the face of the awesome power of mother nature.
Which was why the idea of adding song and dance seemed distasteful to me.

Never seen the film either, tried watching but turned it off after half an hour or so. My wife died shortly after the film was released. Somewhat surprising the song being played on the radio helped me through a very tough time, just the words 'my heart will go on' reminded me that others survived tragedies. Never liked the song but it helped.

I liked it. The film. Canada has recently issued a formal apology for Celine Dion.

There'll be a musical out shortly featuring the Egyptian trawler full of refugees with incompetent greek border force playing the part of the iceberg.

Wasn't it a ropeberg?

I get the whole 'bad taste joke' thing. But so many people died. Many of them children. Not funny. The death toll is around 600. That's nearly half of the Titanic casualty list. And one relatively small fishing boat. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MV_Wilhelm_Gustloff
