Growing up, I saw my dad work on his prized collection of Star Wars memorabilia. He had a rule: whenever he came across a collectible, he bought one for me to play with, and kept the next for display. I wouldn’t get to play with that one, no matter how tempting. Three decades later, I have my own rule: whenever I see a Titanic VHS tape in a shop, I buy it for my own collection.
Titanic has always been my favourite film, and I have converted my home office in Florida into my own personal Titanic museum. The 2,682 tapes cover my walls like wallpaper. I have my own Jack Dawson mannequin too.
