Margaret Brown in Real Life
In real life, Margaret Brown had earned the nickname the Unsinkable Molly Brown. The reason behind this was that she had begged the crewman on her lifeboat to go back to where the ship sank to rescue other passengers. Some say the lifeboat did return while others claim it didn’t. But regardless of how events unfolded, Brown’s story became a musical in 1960 called “The Unsinkable Molly Brown.”
