Need help to find the name of a movie on virtual reality
I am looking for a movie made in the 90s (or maybe 2000s 🤷♂️) about virtual reality.
The plot: the protagonist is an actor that needs to get inside a virtual reality to record a movie of the 1920s / 30s. The director asks him to enter a machine(a small pod as far as I remember) to transfer his conscience there. The main scene is inside a hotel salon, where he is supposed to repeat his lines.
However he got stuck there as the computers in the warehouse suddenly turn off. Life goes on inside but the NPCs are stuck. So he is all alone.
Only one NPC realizes there is a fourth wall and in one scene, he/she goes a total black spot as there is no background there...
I can't find the name of that movie although I LOVED IT.
Obviously, it's not the matrix, the 13th floor or many others I saw in many list.
So I count on your guys to remind me of the name.
Thanks a bunch in advance!
