Watched two movies yesterday: "Contagion" and "Extreme Panic".
The former is similar to a documentary, the whole story and main line is simple: discover an airborne plague, then take steps, find a way to finally distribute a vaccine. Every part of the plot makes people feel so real, as if they are all around us. As small as the rich, famous, ordinary people, and as large as a country with high quality and civilization, when unknown threats occupy people's minds, the original sin caused by panic will undoubtedly be revealed. There is a detail in the movie when a young doctor from the World Health Organization is sent to Hong Kong to investigate the cause, but is held by Hong Kong doctors as a hostage in exchange for vaccines. The health organization that developed the vaccine has exchanged fake vaccines for the doctor, which is shameless for the doctor. It turned out that the so-called quality and civilization are only the appearance of people walking in a stable and stable society. In extraordinary times, the weaknesses of human nature are undoubtedly revealed!
The latter feels like a blockbuster. A small white-faced monkey caused a plague. The government intervened to blow up the plague town. Under the "extreme interference" of a doctor (two to be precise), the source of the disease was found, and the infected wife and the whole town were rescued. s story. The reason why it is a blockbuster is because the plot is vivid and attractive, especially the plot of two doctors piloting a plane and risking their lives for a few hours✈️ to find the source of the disease to rescue the town. Proper American style! In this film, the power of the state is clearly evident, that is, politics is on top of all interests, including the lives of more than 2,000 people! At this moment, the doctor's conscience seems so precious! The weak overcome the strong, and the good overcome the evil!
Of course, what I want to say is how happy we are now in comparison: no worries about rice and noodles, no worries about water and electricity, and so many "fighters" fighting on the front line! All we have to do is stay home and don't make trouble. In the spare time of intense work and study, slow down, enjoy the family, and enjoy the time to face your own heart. Flip through a few books you've never read, cook a few dishes you've never tried, start a workout routine in your notes, and enjoy movie time as a family.
Safe at home!
