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

Easy to Love is a 1934 American pre-Code romantic comedy film starring Genevieve Tobin, Adolphe Menjou, Mary Astor, and Edward Everett Horton. This was William Keighley's solo directorial debut – he had co-directed two earlier films with Howard Bretherton. It contains a mildly risqué scene with Tobin discreetly naked in the bathtub. Keighley and Tobin married in 1938. The film is based upon the 1930 play As Good As New by Thompson Buchanan. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
