It's been more than 25 years since the blockbuster movie "Titanic" was released on Dec. 19, 2022. We're taking a stroll down memory lane to see all the stars who attended the film's Los Angeles and London premieres back in December 1997. Fun fact: The film's female lead, Kate Winslet, skipped both premieres — but not because she wasn't proud of the film. She missed the L.A. premiere because she was attending the funeral of an ex-boyfriend she'd dated for more than four years, following his death from cancer. And she missed the U.K. premiere because she was hospitalized with amoebic dysentery she contracted while filming a movie in Morocco.
