Near, far, wherever you are, you can watch Titanic online on Valentine's Day or any other day of the year. James Cameron's sweeping epic romance starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet is one of the biggest movies in history and is tied for the most Oscar wins of all time.
Watching Titanic online and on streaming is a much easier way to consume the film. Back in the days of yore, after its 1997 release, fans had to watch on two video tapes since the movie is so long (it runs three hours and 15 minutes).

Titanic tells the story, based on real events, of the maiden voyage of the titular ship. The actual RMS Titanic sank in the early morning hours of April 15, 1912. The sinking is related through the fictionalized romance between Rose DeWitt Bukater, a high-society but impoverished young woman, and the roguish artist Jack Dawson.
Though they're from different worlds —and she has first class passage, while he's in steerage —they fall in love. And then, the unthinkable happens when the Titanic hits an iceberg.
The film takes place in two time periods, one with Rose and Jack on the Titanic and other with 100-year-old Rose on board an expedition ship seeking to unearth a treasure from the Titanic wreckage.
Here's everything you need to know about how to watch the Titanic online and on streaming.
