(at around 13 mins) Lewis Bodine (Lewis Abernathy) is suspicious of Rose Calvert's (Gloria Stuart) claim to be the long-thought-dead Rose Dewitt Bukater, comparing her to a Russian woman named "Anesthesia". Bodine is referring to Anastasia, the youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, who was murdered with the rest of the imperial family by Bolsheviks during the turbulent early years of the Russian Revolution. It was believed by some that Grand Duchess Anastasia had somehow survived her family's execution, and a number of impostors (most famously a Polish woman known as Anna Anderson) turned up in later years, claiming to be the long-lost princess. This historical phenomenon is dealt with differently in various films, including Anastasia (1956) with Ingrid Bergman, Anastasia l'ultima figlia dello zar (1956) with Lilli Palmer, the TV mini-series Anastasia - L'ultima dei Romanov (1986), and the animated musical Anastasia (1997).
