Raise the Titanic (1980)

Corrected entry: When the Titanic has been raised and the scientist hoists the White Star company flag, he hoists it from completely the wrong place. That flag wasn't flown from the flagstaff at the stern - it belonged at the top of the mainmast. As someone who has studied the Titanic, this scientist would surely have known this.

Correction: The flag is being hoisted from the stern flagstaff because it's easier to reach. Besides the mainmast could have been declared off limits for safety reasons, due to the possibility of corrosion damage after decades under the Atlantic.
