After a successful two-year run, the extraordinary one-of-a-kind exhibit will close January 1, 2010, announces <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bransontourismcenter.com\/titanic.htm\">Titanic Museum Attraction<\/a> owner John Joslyn.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;More than a million visitors have toured our special TITANIC Movie Gallery.  If you&rsquo;re not already among that group&mdash;and even if you are&mdash;make plans to tour over the holidays before it&rsquo;s too late,&rdquo; says Joslyn.  &ldquo;This is the movie that swept the Academy Awards in 1997.  It secured an unprecedented niche in Hollywood history after winning 11 Oscars.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The TITANIC Movie Gallery offers a rare opportunity to go behind the scenes for a glimpse of the film&rsquo;s hand-crafted props and set pieces and its beautiful costumes, including the famous red-beaded &ldquo;jump&rdquo; dress Rose was wearing when Jack kept her from jumping ship early in the film.  There&rsquo;s also the pink &ldquo;sinking&rdquo; coat Rose wore while rescuing Jack from the sinking ship, and the magnificent heart-shaped diamond and sapphire necklace that stole the show.  Valued at more than $250,000, it boasts 325 diamonds totaling 16 carats that circle a stunning 155-carat sapphire.  In addition, visitors are privy to behind-the-scenes videos, photos, provocative on-location stories and the actual shooting script Cameron used.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;During the holidays, we&rsquo;ll be coming down to the wire as this great exhibit comes to a close.  Be sure you catch this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,&rdquo; invites Joslyn, also the expedition leader of the first private exploration dive to Titanic&rsquo;s wreck site. <br \/>\nThe World&rsquo;s Largest TITANIC Museum Attraction is the #1 permanent year-round family destination in Branson, Missouri.  In operation for 3&frac12;  years, it has welcomed aboard almost 2,000,000 guests.  The 17,000 square-foot ship-shaped structure is built half-scale to the original Titanic and towers more than 100 feet above its anchored position on Highway 76.  A 90-minute self-guided or optional audio tour covers 20 galleries on two decks displaying more than 400 priceless artifacts that once belonged to Titanic passengers or crew.<\/p>\n<p>\nPublication of this press release, on this site, sponsored by Branson Tourism Center (BTC) one of Branson&rsquo;s largest and most respected vacation planning services and sellers of<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bransontourismcenter.com\/index.html?gclid=CMHIl8K76JcCFQsaHgodSjE2Dg http:\/\/www.bransontourismcenter.com\/shows\/2009 \"> Branson show<\/a> and attraction tickets and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bransontourismcenter.com\/lodginglist.htm \">lodging<\/a>.
