The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens
Night Nurse is a 1931 American pre-Code crime tragedy mystery film produced and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, directed by William A. Wellman, and starring Barbara Stanwyck, Ben Lyon, Joan Blondell, and Clark Gable. It is based on the 1930 novel of the same name by Dora Macy, the pen name of Grace Perkins. The film was considered risqué at the time of its release, particularly due to the scenes in which Stanwyck and Blondell are shown in their lingerie. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
