The_China_Syndrome movie was in theaters less than two weeks before an actual power plant emergency occurred in March 1979. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0078966/?ref_=m_tttr_tt

"The March 1979 release was met with backlash from the nuclear power industry's claims of it being "sheer fiction" and a "character assassination of an entire industry".[11] Twelve days later, the Three Mile Island nuclear accident occurred in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_China_Syndrome#Response_of_nuclear_industry

"When the film was first released on 16 March 1979, nuclear power executives soon lambasted the picture as being "sheer fiction" and a "character assassination of an entire industry". Then twelve days after its launch, the Three Mile Island nuclear accident occurred near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania." https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0078966/trivia/?ref_=tt_ql_trv

The overall production of a movie can take 1 or 2 years, so the release of this movie might be considered to be an example of synchronicity.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Mile_Island_accident#The_China_Syndrome For something like this to occur less than two weeks after the release of the movie, is an interesting coincidence at the very least.
