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

A Christmas Carol è un film per la televisione del 1952 per la serie Kraft Theatre. Il nome del regista non è indicato tra i crediti. Fin dal 1943 il romanzo Canto di Natale (A Christmas Carol) di Charles Dickens si era imposto come un classico natalizio alla televisione americana, da ripetersi ogni anno con un copione, un formato e un gruppo di attori diversi. Questo adattamento è uno di molti prodotti negli anni cinquanta. Protagonista è l'attore inglese Malcolm Keen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
