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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Country Style, USA is a series of 15-minute radio and film programs produced by the US Army as a recruiting aid from 1957 to 1960 featuring top American country music artists. Each year 13 episodes were produced in Nashville, Tennessee, and distributed to local radio and TV stations. Among the hosts were Jody McCrea and Charlie Applewhite. Artists featured on the shows included Johnny Cash, Moon Mullican, and Jim Reeves. The programs were produced by Owen Bradley and his brother Harold, with some being produced at their Quonset Hut Studio. They should not be confused with the 1950 DuMont TV series, Country Style. The series was released on DVD by season in 2008. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
