A Potpourri of Vestiges Feature
By Murtaza Ali Khan
9 years ago when I
watched Steven Soderbergh's Contagion I found it overly imaginative. Fast
forward to 2020, I now find it highly prophetic.It's currently the most watched
movie on the internet and naturally so.
Soderbergh showed us a
decade in advance how scary a global pandemic can look like. There is such
great similarity between the storyline of Contagion and what's happening around
the world right now that the movie can very well be titled COVID-19.
But if you think that
Soderbergh did it just once let me tell you that Soderbergh made another highly
prophetic film back in the year 1989 titled Sex, Lies, and Videotape. That film
in many ways predicted what the '90s and 2000s went on to bring with them with
the advent of new media.
