Ghosts of the Abyss

Less a portrait of the Titanic than a snapshot of those obsessed by it, this 3-D Imax documentary nevertheless offers striking new footage of the famed sunken ship. Director James Cameron returns to the subject matter that inspired his 1997 Oscar-winning picture, and he seems as enthralled with the legend as with the cameras, submarines and other mechanical doodads that allow him to get close to it.
