Hi,
Can you tell me what cruise ships have been used in movies and where was the filming done?
Thanks
Tom Jennings

In response to Cruise ships and the movies posted by famoustom:


The most famous is Titanic, of course, which was filmed in a large tank, I believe, the original being at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. One of the Seabourn ships was used in the Sandra Bullock film Speed 2, although the scene at the end where it crashes into the pier of St Martin involves a model, thankfully. You may remember the Love Boat series, which was filmed on the old Island Princess and its sister Pacific Princess. Island Princess now sails for Voyages of Discovery as Discovery. German visitors to the site may be familiar with the beautiful sailing yachts of Star Clippers, which are the setting for the TV soap Unter Weissen Segeln. Does anybody know of any more?
