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

November is a 2004 American psychological thriller film premiered at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival. It follows a photographer (Courteney Cox) whose life begins to unravel following a traumatic incident on November 7 that involved her boyfriend (James LeGros). The film co-stars Michael Ealy, Nora Dunn, Anne Archer, Nick Offerman and Matthew Carey. The low-budget independent film was directed by Greg Harrison, written by Benjamin Brand and Harrison, and produced by Danielle Renfrew and Gary Winick. Sony Pictures Classics released it to theaters in the United States on July 22, 2005, and while its award-winning digital video photography was praised, many reviews criticized the film's story for being too ambiguous and derivative of other films. Critics have compared it to the work of filmmakers such as David Lynch and M. Night Shyamalan. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
