This 2011 movie is making a comeback, and it'll scare you into soap and water.

" you won't need a public health official to tell you to wash your hands often, reports the Detroit Free Press, part of the USA TODAY Network.

Anxiety is rising. So is the number of people watching"Contagion," a well-crafted drama that until recently was relatively forgotten. It's become a hot rental at online sites like Amazon Prime and iTunes. "Our best defense has been social distancing, no handshaking, staying home when you're sick, washing your hands frequently," says Fishburne.Art imitates life so closely in such sequences that you may wonder if the rest of the movie is going to come true That's a frightening prospect, because the screenplay by Scott Z. Burns envisions catastrophic loss.

"Contagion" is a worst-case scenario with an A-list cast. Matt Damon portrays Paltrow's husband, an everyman dad struggling to hold things together for his teenage daughter. Laurence Fishburne, Kate Winslet and Marion Cotillard play dedicated public health experts. Jude Law is intense and reckless as a conspiracy-chasing blogger, while Jennifer Ehle is equally impulsive, but in a heroic way, as a CDC laboratory scientist racing to find a vaccine.

As clues pop up in Hong Kong, London, and Tokyo that a pandemic is emerging, Fishburne and his CDC team must scramble to identify and contain the virus. They track clusters of infections at health clubs and elementary schools and, in Winslet's case, put their own lives at risk by traveling to investigate the sites.
