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

The Fuller Brush Girl is a 1950 slapstick comedy starring Lucille Ball directed by Lloyd Bacon and written by Frank Tashlin. Ball plays a quirky door-to-door cosmetics saleswoman for the Fuller Brush Company. The film reunited Ball with Bacon, producer S. Sylvan Simon and Tashlin from the 1949 film Miss Grant Takes Richmond. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
