19. Jezebel (1938)
Jezebel is actually a romantic movie – mostly set in 1850s Louisiana – that has a mere subplot about a virus outbreak.
It stars Bette Davis and Henry Fonda – with Davis playing a free-spirited Southern belle who loses her fiancé (Fonda) due to her stubborn vanity and pride, before vowing to win him back.
At one point in the movie, Fonda’s character attempts to convince the city authorities to take measures against an outbreak of yellow fever, which is where the virus comes into it.
