TurtleMama Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 There is a moving coming out in September about a fictional outbreak of Avian Flu here in the United States. The U.S. index case was in Asia for business, and having been infected there, brings it back to the U.S. and begins an epidemic. Here's a link to the trailer: http://celebrity-gossip.net/contagion/contagion-movie-trailer-watch-now-524524 It stars Matt Damon, Gwynyth Paltrow, Lawrence Fishburn, Kate Winslet (who I just adore!), and Jude Law...so this isn't a measly little telefilm...this is a film that hopefully people will get out and see, and realize that this could REALLY happen. Maybe this will be the "wake up" for a lot of people out there. We'll see! It does look creepy...and it does look fairly accurate, on both the level of the virus' impact on the body and society.

Jeepers Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Ohhh, this looks like it's going to be a good one. I just saw it advertised on TV. It's coming out Sept. 9th. I usually wait until they come out on DVD but I might have to do a matinee for this one. I haven't been to the movies since Babe the Pig came out. My D-EX took me. Link to comment
Jeepers Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 This movie Contagion, will be out on DVD Jan. 17th. Just in time for the cough, cold and flu season. I missed it at the movies so I'll probably rent it and grab a cup of something hot, snuggle down and watch. Link to comment
Amishway Homesteaders Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 thanks for reminding me of the title- was hoping to see it in the threater but missed it when we were to busy, so now we will wait until it is listed in Libraries and get it then. Link to comment
Jeepers Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I thought I'd watch it over Thanksgiving. I went to Blockbuster and they didn't have it. I asked them to look and see when it was coming out. I kept calling it Pandemic. Of course they couldn't find the 2011 version. I came home and looked up Gwyneth Paltrow movies and found out it will be out 1-7-12 and is called Contagion. Link to comment
