Saved From the Titanic (Known as A Survivor From the Titanic in the UK) (1912) was a silent film starring Dorothy Gibson, an actual Titanic survivor. The movie was shot in less than two weeks and in black and white, with color scenes. It is now considered a lost film with the only prints destroyed in a fire at Éclair Studios in 1914.
[edit] Colour
The movie was one of the first to use color. Although it was filmed in black and white for the most part, two scenes were shot in Kinemacolor -- the scene that depicts Dorothy returning to her parents after she was presumed dead, and the final scene in which her father gives her to her fiance in marriage.
