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 & Out is a 1997 American comedy film directed by Frank Oz, written by Paul Rudnick, and starring Kevin Kline, Tom Selleck, Joan Cusack, Matt Dillon, Debbie Reynolds, Bob Newhart, Shalom Harlow, and Wilford Brimley. The film follows a harried high school teacher (Kline) who, just days before his wedding, battles rumors of his homosexuality in his small Midwestern hometown after one of his former students (Dillon) outs him on national television, prompting him to question his own sexual orientation. Inspired by an emotional Academy Award acceptance speech by Tom Hanks, the film became one of mainstream Hollywood's first few attempts at a comedic "gay movie" of its era, and was widely noted at the time for a 12-second kiss between Kline and Selleck. In & Out was released by Paramount Pictures on September 19, 1997. The film was a commercial and critical success, as it earned about $63.9 million worldwide while receiving praise for its performances, particularly those of Kline and Cusack, who was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance.
