'Ghosts' Story

King of the World James Cameron is still a deep guy. For his 3-D large-format documentary Ghosts of the Abyss, the Titanic director revisits the lost ship -- and brings along Bill Paxton, the jewel hunter in the '97 blockbuster. ''We got to see things no one's ever seen,'' claims Paxton. ''New technology let us see inside the ship.'' For his part, Cameron says he has mixed feelings about the new footage: ''The worst part was coming around the corner to see little architectural things we got wrong [in Titanic].'' The director adds that Gloria Stuart, 92, nominated for an Oscar for her work in the original film, was also involved in Ghosts, which is due in April. ''Gloria came to see us off when we embarked out of St. John's, Newfoundland, and she waved a hanky from the dock,'' he says. ''We shot it, but it felt a little too personal to include.''
