“She was my best friend for seven months. We’d unload the stresses of the shoot to each other, vent to each other, watch out for each other. Kate was just the perfect person to work with because she was very much one of the guys, and it would have been much harder without her. We were partners.” -Leo

‘I am not used to working in such horrible conditions.’

Titanic: behind the scenes [x]

She spoke on the phone from London today to promote the theatrical re-release of James Cameron’s epic adventure on April 4, timed to the 100th anniversary of the ship’s sinking on April 15, 1912. Regretfully, her shipmate and love interest Leonardo DiCaprio — who is busy shooting Quentin Tarantino’s Western Django Unchained — could not be with her.

Titanic lore has it that the actor was never comfortable with the flood of fame that was thrust upon him at the young age of 23, especially with having to cope with the wave of Leo mania that spread among teen girls back then.

Says Winslet, who was 22 when the movie opened, “I love him so much, but I would never speak for him. I can say that the only reason for him not being here — and especially for him not being here for me — is because he is shooting.”

As DiCaprio and Winslet told USA TODAY in 2008 for the pair’s second reteaming in the domestic melodrama Revolutionary Road, they have remained the best of friends and often discuss the projects they are considering on the phone. “I don’t really talk to anybody apart from Leo about what I am thinking of doing,” Winslet said during the interview.

Little has changed between the still-close friends, who have jointly pondered the fact that Titanic is resurfacing on the big screen. “We have sat across a table with drinks, going, ‘Can you believe it? How is it possible?’ It seems crazy.”

“…And also, it was you know, watching Leo dance… I would happily pay good money to do again.” - Kate Winslet on one of the reasons why this scene was her favourite to shoot

The next oldest actor to win an Oscar will be Leonardo DiCaprio.
