I really enjoyed this documentary, which provided a lot of information on the recovery of bodies following the sinking of the Titanic. I've read and seen any number of books, articles, documentaries and dramas about HOW the disaster happened, but very little, if anything, about the events that followed.
This documentary was done with great respect for the survivors and the victims. The details about the forensics and the meticulous identifying of the bodies was fascinating, as were the scenes in the Halifax Titanic graveyard.
It is such a mystery how a 3-year-old child remains unidentified after all these years. Was there no passenger manifest listing everyone on the vessel? Were there so many 3-year-old boys onboard that it was impossible to identify one among many? Was a photo not released of him, as they were of other unidentified passengers?
It seems almost disrespectful of everyone involved in this tragedy to say the film was "enjoyable", but I do appreciate all the information it provided and how well it was presented.
