Think about it.. why would the old lady drop the diamond into the water knowing very well that the man she shared her story with was looking for it his whole life.. she was old and was going to die.. why let it go to waste? I never understood that.
 
I thought she dropped it accidentally because she was so frail and elderly. Wasn't she attempting to mount the railing of the ship? The effort of that alone could have caused some kind of involuntary motor reflex (or something) meaning she never meant to drop anything it was involuntary.

I also remember thinking that Leo dying was such a cop out. Shouldn't both he and Rose have perished? If they truly loved each other and couldn't bear to be apart...

My 'take' on it is that she was giving her heart to Jack (Leo) since she knew they were over the site of the wreck.

After all, the necklace was called the heart of the ocean.

I don't think she wandered out onto the back of the ship in her nightgown, late at night, with the necklace and didn't intend to drop it overboard.

Only James Cameron knows for sure.

Could have been a weak throw for a OAP.
 
i think she was letting go of everything because she wanted to be with jack and it took me forever to get the ending of the movie. like at first i thought that she was dreaming at the end of the movie it wasnt until i was about 15 that i got the fact that she had died at the end of the movie. and im sure that she wanted the "heart" to be with Jack since she knew that she soon would be to. she had given up her will to live. but who knows, thats just my take on it
 
Because the diamond was an intense emotional attachment to Jack and all the hopes and dreams she once had of a life with him. She needed to let go in order to reach some sense of closure and peace.
 
that movie was so good and just tore up my heart.. i still watch it and get emotional to this day. It's also the world's most successful movie.. or at least in America. I saw it in theater 7 times. Its like as if some things were unanswered and as if I wanted to keep watching forever. I still get anxious when I watch it hoping there will be more.. such as how she grew up and went out into the world after she left the Carpathia.
 
I don't think that she accidently dropped it. She wanted to return it to the sea or titantic, or whatever sentimental reason...she meant to do it, which I found bs. I had to crack up with the saturday night live parody of Titantic, couldn't find it on youtube. Will look some more.
 
I think that she dropped the diamond on accident...if she really wanted to give her heart to Jack, she should have jumped in the ocean.
 
i thought she did it on purpose for emotional closer ,to return it to the ocean near the wreck site, and thereby symbolically returning it to another place in time , to quote a line form the my heart will go on " one true time I hold to ".... she should have just sold it, or left it to someone in her will, hard to believe someone would keep something worth millions for so many decades and not sell when times got hard, especially living through the great depression like she did
 
Sometimes I think that I am one of only a handfull in the world to not have watched the movie?
 
I thought she did by accident. I seem to recall her kind of going like "Oh!" or sounding dismayed and weak when it dropped out of her hand. But I also heard that a cut scene had the fat guy suddenly going down on one knee with his hands stretched out screaming "Nooooo!" when she drops it, which was cut for obvious tasteless reasons, so it may not have been accidental at all.

it is the sixth-highest grossing in North America once adjusted for inflation ooh AND the highest-grossing film of all time, with a total worldwide gross of approximately $1.8 billion!!!!

Yowzer!

Howza bout a sequel on a shoe string budget??
 
The film accumulated a grand total of $1,842,879,955 worldwide, and to this day Titanic retains the record as the most successful box office film in history.
 
I'm not sure if you have the 3-disc edition DVDs of this movie, in the special features, there's an alternative ending, where she drooped it right in front of everyone.

She said that the diamond should have been under the ocean 84 years ago, that diamond should never belong to her, because it's a gift from Carl. She even wouldn't sell it during her hardest time, that would make her feel she was spending Carl's money. So she just left it where it was supposed to be.

However, James Cameron realised that it was better to just leave an audience involvement at the end of the movie, so we could guess.
