This is not a movie review, just a record of the current situation

Today is Friday, February 7, 2020, the fifth day of working from home. Now is the stage when the new type of coronavirus pneumonia is still spreading, and the epidemic situation in Wuhan is the most serious, and the national epidemic prevention and control situation is grim. The national real-time update of the number of people related to the epidemic shows that there are currently 31,253 confirmed cases, 26,359 suspected cases, 637 deaths, and 1,648 cured. These are not cold numbers, these are human lives. Watching all kinds of news every day, mood ups and downs. I'm still like this outside the city. Those who are under the lockdown are probably overloaded with psychological pressure. Dr. Li Wenliang passed away yesterday, and the world mourns. He lives in our hearts forever. I often think of a lot of truths Mr. Lu Xun said. He said that studying medicine cannot save the country. It is true. But not if no one is studying medicine. 2.8 Lantern Festival, I used to look forward to the holiday from New Year's Eve to Lantern Festival. I didn't expect it to be realized in such a last resort. The inflection point has not yet appeared, and Grandpa Zhong Nanshan said that he would have to wait a few days. I don't know if 2.14 will be better. No holiday matters anymore, we just want an ordinary day where we can go out without wearing a mask. I wonder if the Huoshenshan Leishenshan Hospital and those square cabins can treat so many patients. I don't want to be happy every day. At this time, my thoughts are complicated. Watching this movie, my mood is really different from before.

    Pseudo-documentary shooting. Scattered characters The scattered locations, from the family to the society, spread out like a contagion, and the drama is that there is no way of knowing who is next. Electronic music is as psychedelic as the virus itself, interspersed in every corner of the film, dangerous and unknown. In the film, many media such as cameras, monitors, and online media are also like carriers of viruses, and they are still as highly reflexive as Soderbergh's debut work.
