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

In the Doghouse, also known as Vet in the Doghouse, is a 1961 British black-and-white comedy film directed by Darcy Conyers and starring Leslie Phillips and Peggy Cummins. The film was based on the 1961 novel It's a Vet's Life by Alex Duncan. The title refers to the British expression of a person being "in the doghouse" when a person is ostracised usually relating to a husband for domestic bad behaviour, and usually used in the third person e.g. "he is in the doghouse because...
