Re: [Videolib] looking for FEATURE FILMS on global health
"Contagion" is an excellent suggestion. There's also the classics "Omega Man," "Andromeda Strain," and "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." Others are "Outbreak" (which is great fun about a deadly serious subject, and suspenseful), Gilliam's"Twelve Monkeys," which is based on Marker's "La Jetee," or to be silly and over the top Cronenberg's first film "Shivers," that really does drive home the serious matter of global contagions. There is one more that I just cannot think of; it was set in contemporary London, and quite realistically shows how social order quickly erodes in the face of widespread panic over a virus, not unlike the bubonic plague. I want to say it was an HBO production. I will certainly send it if I can think of it.
