Trivia
To their great credit, the prop people actually completely filled the salt shaker for the diner with the Capt. scene, 11:13 into the film, but the pouring holes must have been huge as, following the Capt. line "Of course, the sea's at dead calm now", the actress on the right pours what looks like a ton of salt on her melon.

A Night to Remember (1958) - 4 mistakes
Factual error: When the ship sinks it lamely slips into the water at a low angle. Somewhat of an anti-climax. Contrary to some reports, even at the time the film was made it was known that part of the ship upended at 45 degrees and sank vertically. I discovered this when I listened to an eyewitness account which is a permanent fixture at the British Library.
Continuity: As the ship is about to take its final plunge, a small group of Irish steerage passengers is seen desperately clambering up the rising deck towards the stern. They include the young man seen singing in the third class saloon earlier in the film. Shortly afterwards they are shown again, still on board and awaiting the inevitable. One minute later they have all been miraculously transferred to a lifeboat, in time to witness the ship's passing. As the "Titanic" slips beneath the sea, the aforesaid singer begins reciting the Lord's Prayer.
