Synopsis
Saved from the Titanic was a 1912 silent motion picture short starring Dorothy Gibson, an actual survivor of the sinking of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912. She co-wrote the script and played a fictionalized version of herself recounting the story of her rescue to her (fictional) parents and fiancé. To add to the film's authenticity she wore the same clothes in which she had left Titanic aboard the first lifeboat launched from the stricken ship. It was the first film to be made about the disaster and opened in the United States just 29 days after the ship sank. The film was released internationally and it attracted large audiences and positive reviews, though there was some criticism over the way that it had commercialized the tragedy so soon after the event. It is no longer in existence as the only known prints were destroyed in a studio fire in March 1914. It was also Dorothy Gibson's last film.
