"Titanic". Correct my story
Yesterday I watched one of my favourite films, "Titanic" by James Cameron, in English without subtitles. It was very difficult for me, but I liked it. There were a lot of new words, especially marine terms. Almost all the actors spoke faster and unclearly, but I really enjoyed their voices and intonation. This was more pleasant than to watche it in Russian.
But I suppose that it's too early to watch such difficult and long films. Perhaps, I will start from with serials. For example, I like "Desperate Housewives", but before to I watch it, I need to read the subtitles (only unknown words, not reading the whole text) and then I can more or less understand more or less English speech.(Ruthi's suggestion for the word order is also fine) I have read about this method of improving English recently on Youtube. I hope I can do it))
And do you have some method of how to start understanding English speech?

This is a really good piece of writing with not many mistakes! I think your method is a good one. BUt of course speaking to different Native Speakers is another method of improving your comprehension skills as well as your speaking.
Good luck!
