Text
Bernard Hill is the only actor to have the distinction of appearing in two movies that have won 11 Oscars - Titanic (1997) and Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), both of which are special to me and are my absolute favourite movies of all time.
My earliest memory of seeing him is watching Titanic on DVD for the first time when I was 9 years old and immediately feeling at ease whenever I saw this older experienced captain - Bernard Hill’s portrayal of Captain Edward J. Smith really captured how the real life Captain Smith was for the passengers on Titanic: a trustworthy seasoned Captain you could rely on, one who went down with his ship.
I’ve always thought, however, that my favourite moment of his comes from this behind-the-scenes video of Lord of the Rings, where he’s having a laugh throwing fruit into Dominic Monaghan’s mouth as the cast get dressed. I don’t know why I love this clip so much, but it always brings a smile to my face.
Rest in Peace, Theoden King, Captain 💔

The officers and the captain while lost in the woods
Wilde: "Well, we wouldn't be in this mess if CHARLES DIDN'T CRASH THE CAR!"
Lightoller: "I'M SORRY, that turkey came out of no where!"
Boxhall: "Somebody pass me the map and compass."
Pitman: "Wait, where's Harold?"
Lowe: *has already found his way out of the woods*
Captain Smith: "Don't worry, gentlemen. We have plenty of food in the back of the car."
Murdoch: "No we don't, because James ate it all."
Moody: *stuffing his face with a sandwich, mumbling to himself while pacing* "I'm stuck here in the middle of nowhere eating a ham sandwich!"

When I was little, I watched the Titanic movie. I got scared and cried a little because the captain passed away.
Rest in peace, Bernard Hill. 🙏
Oh captain! My captain!

Titanic drabble #7
characters: Captain Smith, Wireless Operators Jack Phillips and Harold Bride
warnings: none
words: 100
--
"Send S.O.S."
Bride was trying to joke. How could he not? They'd been joking around ever since Captain Smith first came down with the news. Neither of them wanted to think about the fact that Phillips was sending C.Q.D.s, so they thought about humor instead.
"It might be your last chance to use it."
Phillips and Captain Smith both laughed.
But Bride noticed that the pattern Phillips was sending changed, without hesitation, to the dit-dit-dit dash-dash-dash dit-dit-dit of the new signal, and they all stopped laughing, and Bride searched his mind for the next joke.

Everyone's talking about King Theoden so I thought to contribute Captain Smith from The Titanic. One of the scenes in movie history that haunted a generation.
RIP Bernard Hill.

If we're calling character assassination on Master Chief on the new show, I'd also like to use this platform to declare character assassination on Captain Smith.
Please bring mouth guard and tape.

Captain Smith: "If you were given a box containing everything you ever lost from your childhood, what would be in it?"
Boxhall: "Ah, my happiness. Can't remember the last time I saw this."
Moody: "My dignity! Wow, it's been forever."
Lowe: "Oh, my will to live. I didn't really miss this, but whatever."
Pitman: "I was thinking a pen or something, but are you guys alright??"
