Titanic (1997)

Question: When Cal says to Rose,'I should have kept that drawing it would be worth a lot more in the morning'. What does this mean?

Chosen answer: Cal sarcastically means that he expects Jack Dawson (who drew the picture Cal is referring to) will die when the Titanic sinks. It is a morbid fact that, historically, an artist's body of work becomes more valuable "after" their death, even doubling or tripling in value. Cal is saying Jack's drawing would be worth more once Jack is dead.

Answer: Personally, I always also highly suspected that, given Rose's answer a moment later; he meant that since the drawing was made on the Titanic and dated the night of its sinking; it would be very valuable given its historical connection then.
