Outbreak (film)

''Outbreak'' is a 1995 American medical disaster film directed by Wolfgang Petersen and very loosely based on Richard Preston's non-fiction book ''The Hot Zone''.〔 The film stars Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo and Morgan Freeman, and co-stars Cuba Gooding, Jr., Kevin Spacey, Donald Sutherland and Patrick Dempsey.
The film focuses on an outbreak of a fictional Ebola-like virus called Motaba in Zaire and later in a small town in the United States. Its primary settings are government disease control centers USAMRIID and the CDC, and the fictional town of Cedar Creek, California. ''Outbreaks plot speculates how far military and civilian agencies might go to contain the spread of a deadly contagion.
The film was released on March 10, 1995 and proved a box office success. It was nominated for various awards but failed to garner any major award nominations. It also raised various "what-if" scenarios: media outlets began to question what the government would really do in a similar situation and if the CDC has plans in case an outbreak ever does occur. A real-life outbreak of the Ebola virus was occurring in Zaire during the time of the film's release.〔
==Plot summary==

Motaba, a fictional virus which causes a deadly fever, is discovered in the African jungle in 1967. To keep the virus a secret, U.S. Army officers Donald McClintock (Donald Sutherland) and William Ford (Morgan Freeman) destroy the camp where it was found.
In 1995 the virus resurfaces in Zaire. Colonel Sam Daniels (Dustin Hoffman), a USAMRIID virologist, is sent to investigate. He and his crew—Lieutenant Colonel Casey Schuler (Kevin Spacey) and new recruit Major Salt (Cuba Gooding, Jr.)—gather information and return to the United States. Daniels asks his superior, now-Brigadier General William Ford, to issue an alert. Despite his prior knowledge, Ford tells Daniels the virus is unlikely to appear.
Meanwhile, a white-headed capuchin monkey named Betsy—a host animal to the virus—is smuggled into the United States. James "Jimbo" Scott (Patrick Dempsey)—an employee at the Biotest animal holding facility—steals Betsy and takes her to Cedar Creek, California, to sell on the black market and is infected on the trip. Jimbo unsuccessfully tries to sell Betsy to Rudy Alvarez (Daniel Chodos)—a pet store owner who is also infected—before releasing the monkey into the woods. Jimbo's symptoms manifest while flying to Boston, where he gets off the plane and infects his girlfriend Alice (Kellie Overbey). Both are hospitalized and Dr. Roberta Keough (Rene Russo)—a CDC scientist and Daniels's ex-wife—investigates the infections. Jimbo, Alice, and Rudy die but Keough establishes that no one else in Boston was infected.
The technicians at a Cedar Creek hospital, including Henry (Leland Hayward III), run tests on Rudy's blood. Henry is infected when a vial is broken and he soon dies. The virus mutates into a new strain, capable of spreading like flu, and numerous Cedar Creek citizens are exposed. Daniels learns of the infection and flies to Cedar Creek against Ford's orders, joining Keough's team along with Schuler and Salt. As they begin a search for the host animal, the U.S. Army quarantines the town, declaring martial law. Schuler is infected when his suit tears and Keough accidentally stabs herself with a contaminated needle. Ford provides an experimental serum to treat the infected, and Daniel realizes that Ford knew about the virus before the outbreak. However, the serum does not work in Cedar Creek due to the mutation. Daniels confronts Ford, who admits that he withheld information due to Motaba's potential to be turned into a biological weapon.
Daniels learns of Operation Clean Sweep—a plan by the military to bomb the town of Cedar Creek—which has approval from the President of the United States. Now-Major General Donald McClintock plans to use the bombing to cover up the virus's existence. To prevent Daniels from finding a cure, McClintock has him arrested by implicating Daniels as a viral carrier. After escaping custody, Daniels and Salt fly a helicopter to the ship that carried the host animal. Daniels obtains a picture of Betsy and broadcasts it on the news; Mrs. Jeffries (Gina Menza) realizes that this is the animal her daughter Kate (Kara Keough) plays with in their yard and calls the news station. Daniels and Salt arrive at the Jeffries' house and Salt tranquilizes Betsy after Kate coaxes her out of hiding. Upon learning from Daniels of Betsy's capture, Ford delays the bombing.
Flying back, Daniels and Salt are confronted by McClintock, who chases them in another helicopter. Salt fires two rockets into the trees to trick McClintock into thinking they crashed. Returning to Cedar Creek, Salt mixes Betsy's antibodies with the serum Ford provided to create an anti-serum; Schuler has already succumbed to the virus but they are in time to save Keough.
Daniels discovers that McClintock did not call off Operation Clean Sweep. He and Salt take a helicopter and fly in the way of the bomber, which is commanded by a pilot with the call sign of Sandman One (Maury Sterling). With support from Ford, Daniels is able to convince Sandman One and his co-pilot (Michael Emanuel) to stop and the bomb detonates over water instead of the town. Ford relieves McClintock of command and places him under arrest for withholding information from the President. Daniels and Keough reconcile and the remaining residents of the town are successfully cured.
