When I see someone in a film removing an LP from its jacket and handling
the surface it sends shivers down my spine! Presumably it's done for
"artistic" reasons--having someone remove an LP from the outer jacket
and then removing the inner one might upset continuity.

I love the scene in one of Woody Allen's early films - think it's PLAY IT
AGAIN, SAM - when he's trying to be cool with a girlfriend. He picks up an
LP album as he's talking to her and, making a broad gesture, accidentally
sends the record flying out of the jacket, crashing across the room. No
inner sleeve!
And in FUN WITH DICK AND JANE, George Segal holds up a record store with the
pretext of returning a Bessie Smith LP. Segal has his hand holding a
firearm concealed inside the record jacket and when the clerk inquires
what's wrong with the record, Segal pulls it out and replies, "Well, there's
a gun in it."
