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.

What happens

Westward Ho is a 1935 American Western film directed by Robert N. Bradbury and starring John Wayne and Sheila Bromley. It was released by the recently created Republic Pictures and was produced by Paul Malvern, who had previously produced several of Wayne's Westerns under the Lonestar Productions division of Monogram Pictures. Many consider the film among the earliest revisionist Westerns. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
