The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

How it feels

A group of stars gets tangled in romantic situations. This is a pre-Code comedy from 1933 that was adapted from a stage play. The movie relies on silly mix-ups and misunderstandings for laughs.

What happens

Love, Honor, and Oh Baby! is a 1933 American pre-Code comedy film, starring Slim Summerville, ZaSu Pitts, and George Barbier. A group of stars rounds out the rest of the cast that includes Donald Meek, Lucille Gleason and Varree Teasdale. Adapted from the stage play Oh, Promise Me (which was also the film's working title) it is ”a situation comedy, carrying a romantic twist”. The film did not do well nor was it well reviewed by The New York Times, which called it unfunny. The 1940 Universal Pictures film with almost the same title is not a remake.
