Almost lost in the drama of the sinking is the fact that Rose's maid Trudy unfortunately does not survive the sinking. This is brought up in the narration that Titanic historians Ken Marshall and Don Lynch do for the film's DVD release. It's easy to miss Trudy's demise, as she doesn't receive much screen time and thus is not that recognizable, but Trudy is the woman seen during the sinking hanging on to a man who apparently says, " Hold on Miss. Trudy," before unfortunately losing his grip causing her to slide down the enclosed promenade deck on the starboard side of the ship and enter the icy debris filled water. This, however, contradicts historical record. Of all woman who traveled in First Class, including servants, only four woman and one child perished. Bess Allison and her two year old daughter Lorraine along with Edith Evans, Ida Strauss and Ann Isham were the only First Class females who did not survive the sinking. Aside from that every other woman in First Class, including all the female servants, survived. (But Trudy was never a real person, so her fate either way wouldn't change anything)
