Titanic exhibit marks 100-year anniversary

"Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition" arrives at Atlantic Station's Premier Exhibition Center April 6, 2012.

An authentic dish and cup recovered from Titanic hardly look like they could have gone down with a ship 100 years ago. The items will be on display at "Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition" at Atlantic Station's Premier Exhibition Center, opening April 6.

An authentic bank note recovered from Titanic is part of the exhibition on the iconic ship than sank 100 years ago.

A simulated iceberg chilled to 28 degrees allows exhibition visitors to feel the temperature of the North Atlantic the night Titanic sank.

You'll notice a flood of Titanic-related books arriving on store shelves ahead of the 100th anniversary, including "A Rare Titanic Family: The Caldwells' Story of Survival," from Montgomery-based NewSouth Books, written by the great-niece of passenger and Presbyterian missionary Albert Caldwell, Samford University journalism professor Julie Williams.

James Cameron's 1997 blockbuster "Titanic" will be re-released in 3D, 3D Imax and conventional 2D on April 4.

Fans went wild over Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet in 1997 when the pair played Jack Dawson and Rose DeWitt in James Cameron's "Titanic." Will the 3D re-release see the same success?
