Movies about Coronavirus | 冠狀病毒相關電影

（中文在後面）

Since quarantine in March, I've came across some movies about coronavirus, virus, or pandemic in general. It's alarmingly realistic the way these movies dipict the spread (or the concept) of a contagious disease, as if they predited 2020's coronavirus outbreak. 

Contagion (2011) is a movie inspired by the 2002 SARS-CoV-2 in China, the predecessor of COVID-19. The story began in Hong Kong and the cause of the bat-originated virus was due to human exploitation of remote forest. WHO in Geneva is involved here. 

It's interesting to watch this doctor re-watching Contagion in the context of this year. Also interesting to see in this film is CNN chief medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta, who now appear on TV often. 

And a word on COVID-19, this is a wildlife price list (menu) from a vendor in Wuhan seafood market. 

Inferno (2016) is one of the Robert Langdon series (why did I come to know about it only in 2020...). It's basically a non-superpower version of Thanos trying to wipe out human population for the sake of human survival on earth. WHO is also involved. 

This image of "Map of Hell" illustrated by Botticelli is fascinating, if you're a lover of Divine Comedy. 

The filming location, Basilica Cistern, in my opinion, is the most beautiful tourist attraction in Instabul, which I visited in 2017. Great to tour Florence and Venice with the characters during this quarantine time. 

Pandemic: How to Prevent an Outbreak (2020) was dropped in January 2020, almost prophetic when COVID-19 was just about to break out. Later in April came Coronavirus, Explained (2020), another docuseries to understand what's going on now. Some video clips here are from last year's series, Inside Bill's Brain (2019).

最近看了一些病毒傳染病相關的電影影集，內容也太寫實了簡直是預言。

Contagion (2011) 『全境擴散』翻得很好，根據2020年SARS寫出的劇本。

Inferno (2016) 『地獄』很好看，是義大利觀光宣傳片。

第一次看到在伊斯坦堡地下水宮殿拍的電影，非常美的景點。

年初還沒多少人知道冠狀病毒的時候，Netflix推出了迷你影集Pandemic: How to Prevent an Outbreak (2020)，現在看來真是神時間點。四月推出了另一部影集Coronavirus, Explained (2020)，其中有些是從去年的比爾蓋茲影集 Inside Bill's Brain (2019) 剪來的片段。
