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

Partners in Crime (übersetzt „Partner im Verbrechen“) ist ein britischer Kriminalfilm von Peter Duffell aus dem Jahr 1961. Produziert wurde er von der Filmgesellschaft Merton Park Studios. Das Drehbuch stammt von Robert Banks Stewart und baut auf dem Roman The Man Who Knew von Edgar Wallace auf; mit dem Roman Partners in Crime (dt.: Die Büchse der Pandora) hat der Film außer dem gleichen Namen nichts zu tun. Der Film war einer der ersten Teile der Edgar Wallace Mysteries, einer Serie von 47 Edgar-Wallace-Verfilmungen der Merton Park Studios zwischen 1960 und 1965; in Deutschland wurde er nie gezeigt.
