Leonardo:
There was definite certain moments when I felt like, wow Im really here. Running towards the back of a ship with ya know 2,000 people around you screaming for their lives on a ship that looks exactly like the Titanic while its like going up in the air in hydraulics. You cant help but feel like you were really there.

Lisa Canning:
You and Kate the chemistry. . .

Leonardo:
The love story, I knew, was going to be what the audience was connected to, ya know. . .

Lisa Canning:
Yeah.

Leonardo:
I wanted to make that as realistic as possible.

Mary Hart(voice):
Kate was called on to pose naked in a scene which was a little awkward on the set.

Leonardo:
I think it was our first day of work if I remember correctly the poor girl had to ya know be completely naked in front of me ya know in front of the whole sort of crew. . .

Lisa Canning:
Oh boy. . .

Leonardo:
. . .and huh it was like jumping right into it ya know.

Lisa Canning:
Tell me about working in all that water.

Leonardo:
You get to be like a cat after a while you just dont want to get in there.

Lisa Canning:
Your director in fact said there were days where every time you knew you had to be into the water you were sick, is that true?

Leonardo:(laughing)
No.

Mary Hart(voice):
And after spending months on James Camerons soggy set Leonardo got his revenge. . .

Leonardo:
I got to dump a big thing of ice and water on Jims head in front of everybody after the movie was done. He didnt know who it was. He looked around, trying to search around and it was me and I. . .I got away scott free which was cool.
