20 Things You Somehow Missed In Titanic
10. James Cameron Regular Jenette Goldstein Plays The Irish Mother
Jenette Goldstein has appeared in a number of James Cameron's movies, making her memorable acting debut as Private Vasquez in Aliens, and then playing John Connor's (Edward Furlong) foster mother Janelle Voight in Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
Though Goldstein only acted intermittently on-screen in the years that followed, she nevertheless made a brief appearance in Titanic as the Irish immigrant mother who tragically tells a story to her two children to put them to sleep, well aware they're imminently due to drown.
It's a memorable scene for sure, yet Goldstein's appearance is so markedly different from in prior Cameron movies - no doubt aided by the period clothing she's wearing - that you'd be forgiven for not even noticing her.
