I was trained so well and I had all the safety in place and really respected the process. Revealing how she mastered the art of holding her breath underwater, she said, "I have a lot more interest in breath work now for sure. She continued, "There's a breathing sequence and I make them do it now. If we are on vacation, for example, and one of the kids will say, 'Oh, I'm going to dive down and get that shell.' I will say, 'Okay, not too deep please.' I know how deep they could safely go before they need to come back up and take a sequence of specific breaths on the surface to not get that kind of slightly stars-in-the-air blackout feeling because that's when actually people run into trouble when they surface [too quickly]." "I was just super happy to jump [into the world of Avatar] and very excited to be asked," Winslet told people. Just you have to do it!'"

"Holding your breath for longer than two minutes can potentially decrease oxygen flow to the brain, causing fainting and in extreme cases, brain damage," she says. "At best, you’re going to walk away with a brand-new aptitude, but I was scared." "So she had to be utterly calm underwater, and it turned out that she was a natural." Deep-sea sequences in the new film required many cast members to get comfortable underwater and train to hold their breath for minutes at a time. And I was like, 'Come on!'

The film itself focuses on the decade and the war that irrevocably altered the adventurous life of Miller, who was beloved by her peers and GIs alike.

“To me, she was a life force to be reckoned with, so much more than an object of attention from famous men with whom she is associated,” Winslet said of her character. Miller was the first and only wartime photographer to record the first Allied use of napalm at St. Malo, France, and acted a witness to the horrors of the Holocaust. There, in part as a reaction to her own well-hidden trauma, she used her Rolleiflex camera to give a voice to the voiceless. The film’s log line describes Miller as “a middle-aged woman [who] refused to be remembered as a model and male artists’ muse. Others on the cast include Andy Samberg (“Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”) will play the role of Life Magazine photographer David E.

James Cameron: Kate Winslet Held Her Breath for 7 Minutes and 14 ... (MovieMaker Magazine)

James Cameron says that Kate Winslet held her breath for seven minutes and 14 seconds while training for Avatar: The Way of Water.

“I have the video of me surfacing saying, ‘Am I dead, have I died?’ And then going, ‘What was [my time]?'” Winlset said. You come in, if the gig is you’re going to be a Platoon, you’re going to be with Oliver Stone in the jungle, you’re going to learn how to field-strip your weapon, all that sort of thing. We’ll just assemble a team of world-class freediving cameramen.’” So Zuccarini came up with a solution: have the camera men hold their breath, too, just like the actors. Now, what that translates to in practical terms is about 2½ to three minutes of swimming and acting. For context, Tom Cruise [held his breath for six minutes](https://www.gq.com/story/human-tom-cruise-can-hold-his-breath-forever) while filming an underwater scene in Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation.

Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic. ... Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic. If you were a person interested in movies 25 years ago, you ...

I wish Cameron could have resisted having Zane’s character, as the ship gets dangerously low in the water and people are screaming and the lifeboats are filling and lives hang in the balance, confirm his status as the evilest person in the world by taking the time to hiss to Rose, “You look a fright.” (Enormous props to Rose for NOT pointing out that she is too busy trying not to drown to attend to her appearance.) I wish Jack could have been slightly less superhuman. But watching it again, I remembered how enormous Winslet’s face was when she lifted her eyes below her gorgeous hat and viewed the ship for the first time, and how the water seemed so terrifyingly dark and cold and unending and the tragedy so present. That’s what makes watching Titanic a strange experience; you want to settle into a big, messy, better-than-it-needs-to-be disaster movie with pretty movie stars in it, and yet you’re haunted by the real-life story behind it. Gloria Stuart, who died in 2010 at the age of 100 and whose Hollywood career began in the early 1930s, performs gentle miracles with her awkwardly written dialogue as a now-elderly Rose. It didn’t matter that Titanic had a three-and-a-quarter-hour running time that limited the number of showtimes per day (it was, at the time, officially listed as “2 hours and 74 minutes”), or that it had an ending that everyone knew, or that it was a costume drama when conventional wisdom held that huge box-office success happened only for franchise films and science fiction. I just remember sitting in the dark, caught up in a story from the past that I’d never given much thought to.

So yeah, that's probably the main difference, quite honestly is that, hopefully just, as storytellers, we've become a little more evolved and interesting, hopefully. Jim's become a parent again, since then," Winslet revealed. For the unversed, Kate starred in James' blockbuster Titanic opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in 1997, which catapulted her to superstardom. When quizzed what's the one difference she finds in the esteemed filmmaker, from Titanic to Avatar: The Way of Water, the Oscar winner confessed that they both have gone through their journey of changes. While Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldaña reprise their roles as Jake Sully and Neytiri, joining them on this blue-centric adventure is Kate Winslet as Ronal... 13 years after shattering box office records as the highest-grossing film of all time with Avatar, James Cameron welcomes us back to the gorgeous landscapes of Pandora with open arms in the highly anticipated sequel.

'It's got to be an experience, first and foremost': James Cameron ... (The Guardian)

The director and actors discuss his typically gruelling film-making process, including learning to free dive, the tech v nature message of the new films ...

The Avatar films do have a conscience, but I don’t let that get in the way of the big adventure. “I guess what I’m struggling to do is to have the best of both worlds, right? [Terminator](https://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/jun/25/the-terminator-review-return-of-the-classic-80s-action-behemoth) to the venal extraction industry in [The Abyss](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096754/) to the hubristic catastrophe of Titanic. In The Way of Water, which is set a decade on from the first Avatar, Jake and Neytiri have four children. And obviously, the shoot was incredibly long and there was an enormous amount of pressure on everybody.” But the infamous Cameron temper seems to have gone. There were some similarities with making Titanic, she acknowledges, “in the sense that there were so many actors, and we really had to stick together because it was so hard for all of us. Even more of a surprise is the participation of Kate Winslet. In fact, she and Cameron remained friends, she says, explaining how, at an event in 2014, he said to her, “at some point, we have to get you big and blue”. [Avatar](https://www.theguardian.com/film/avatar), and much has changed in the interim. Alongside the militaristic hardware, a myth has formed of Cameron as a fearsome, tough-talking army general of a director, subduing and marshalling his crew on set to the extent they once made T-shirts that read: “You can’t scare me, I work for James Cameron.” Each one seems to be the most expensive gamble in history, and is predicted to be a disaster, but ends up breaking box-office records. Meanwhile, for the duration of the flight, “Jim is sitting up reading a book that was called something like Is God Dead?
