Check out this very intriguing reconstruction of the sinking of the Titanic. Was the vessel known forever to the world as the Titanic in fact secretly switched with its previously damaged sister ship, the Olympic, in an elaborate scheme by its owners, the White Star Line (controlled by J. Pierpont Morgan’s parent corporation, the International Mercantile Marine Co.)? Lord Mersey presided over the British Board of Trade inquiry into the disaster, just as he later did in the cover-up investigation of the Lusitania.
Also for your consideration is the 1943 German epic propaganda film, Titanic, commissioned under the auspices of Dr. Josef Goebbels.
