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 film is loosely based on the life of famed entertainer Lotta Crabtree, who was known as the "Golden Girl". The original song "Never," written by Lionel Newman and Eliot Daniel and sung by Dennis Day, earned the film its only Academy Award nomination. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
