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

Carry Harry è un cortometraggio statunitense del 1942, diretto da Harry Edwards, con Harry Langdon. Dopo aver consultato un indovino che gli predice un roseo avvenire prossimo, Harry è coinvolto dal suo amico Arthur in una serie di avventure, al termine delle quali egli si ritrova all’interno dell’appartamento di Elsie e della sua compagna, credendo sia quello di Arthur. Ne nasce una serie di peripezie che trova il suo culmine quando Edith, la moglie di Harry, raggiunge il marito. Alla fine Harry si reca davanti alla vetrina dell’indovino, e, non esattamente secondo la propria volontà, la frantuma. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
