I just finished watching one, and my friend had to ask, I can only assume because the two movies are similar in that they both deal with youthful romance and consist of a sensational storyline.
In my opinion, where filming and musical score are concerned, I'd have to go with Titanic.
However, where dialogue, character relations, storyline, and acting is concerned, and even the overall effect, I would have to say that Titanic doesn't even hold a candle to Ice Castles. They simply don't make movies like this anymore. Take away the digitalized special effects and occasional witty lines from the movies of today, and you have nothing. There's nothing candid or realistic. You can't even relate to the characters because there are no characters to relate to, just dressed up, overly rehearsed, and poised robots.
