A Night to Remember - Film
In 1958 Lord's book was adapted into the film A Night to Remember. Produced as a docudrama, the film was highly successful.[1] Filmed in England A Night to Remember was adapted by Eric Ambler and directed by Roy Ward Baker. The movie used blueprints from the ship to recreate sets and Titanic's Fourth officer Joseph Boxhall worked as a technical advisor.
Kenneth More recalled the production of the film in his autobiography, published 20 years later in 1978. He had served in the Royal Navy in WW2 (as a gunnery officer aboard the cruiser HMS Aurora) and automatically took on the naval officer's crisp and confident air of command when a crisis arose in the film-making: There was no tank big enough at Pinewood Studios to film the survivors struggling to climb into lifeboats, so it was done in the open-air swimming bath at Ruislip Lido at 2 o'clock in the morning of an icy-cold November day. The extras flatly refused to jump in. More realised it would be up to him. "Come on!" he cried.
'I leaped. Never have I experienced such cold in all my life. It was like jumping into a deep freeze. The shock forced the breath out of my body. My heart seemed to stop beating. I felt crushed, unable to think. I had rigor mortis, without the mortis. And then I surfaced, spat out the dirty water and, gasping for breath, found my voice. 'Stop!' I shouted. 'Don't listen to me! It's bloody awful! Stay where you are!' But it was too late ....'[2]
