Eleven years after Titanic, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet were back on the red carpet together last night, for the London premiere of their new movie, Revolutionary Road.

Continuing the fashion transformation - in which we've seen her hemlines soar and style get slinkier - Winslet looked radiant, wowing in a Narcisco Rodriguez little black

dress and a towering pair of five-inch heels by Roger Vivier.

And though she was flashing some serious flesh, the actress still braved the cold, to sign fans' autographs for over an hour, before heading into the cinema.

Speaking to reporters, the co-stars, who have remained friends since their epic first film, had nothing but praise for each other, with Winslet calling DiCaprio 'the greatest actor of his generation.'

Meanwhile of Winslet, he told the Daily Mail, 'We have been a great support mechanism for each other. We both started when we were young and have always been great friends ever since Titanic. We have always been there for each other.'

The pair play a married couple during the 1950s, in the film directed by Winslet's husband, Sam Mendes.

Fresh from her double Golden Globe win last week, where she won awards for both The Reader and Revolutionary Road, Winslet has received two Bafta nods, both in the leading actress category, and is widely tipped to make the Oscar nominations when they're announced this week.

On her burgeoning awards cupboard the actress revealed, 'I just did not expect to win both of those awards and I've never won before so you can't imagine how overwhelming that moment is.'

Revolutionary Road is released on 30 January.
