I watched it when I was in junior high school, and I was shocked when I watched it. I only remembered that it was a highly contagious virus. Now I know it is the plague, and I can understand why it will destroy them. The plague is indelible in the history of mankind black memory, especially for medieval Europe, the contagion that wiped out three-quarters of Europe's population. But the film is more political than medical. Because the research on plague in the United States is a secret act, killing people is the only way, otherwise it will explain how and where the virus came from. And what is the difference between letting the train go to the Cassandra Bridge and Hitler's concentration camp where Jews were sent to a concentration camp? The real purpose of the upper echelons to do something will never be known to the common people. What is the difference between the soldiers who maintain the orders of the upper echelons and the Nazi officers? In front of the state machine, all people are just parts, and they have no ability to turn the tide. All they can do is to follow the steps, otherwise they will be eliminated. Thinking about it this way, I suddenly felt that Hitler was only a winner and loser in World War II, and it seemed that he was not much different from Napoleon. Of course, slaughtering Jews in order to plunder wealth is an act against humanity, but in terms of motivation, there are too many such things in human history.
