Unable to search by Film Number
I have dozens of records that I need to research, and the FHL Film number is attached to the source. This is not new, but as the films are being digitized, why can't we simply go into the catalog and pull up the film (search category)? If it's digitized and available, then we have access and start reading the records. If not, then we see that we need to visit the FHL or order it to a center. This shortcuts having to find the Country, State, County, City (and I don't know WHY you changed this from the way the World lists these), and then, which of the possible headings the film is under. I am looking for a Philadelphia Marriage Film, and it's not coming up in the Philadelphia Marriage Vital Records! I cut and paste the film number, but nothing.
I know you have film #004140435, but is not listed in the Philadelpia Vitals.
Thank you for your time.

DGS 4140435 is listed in this catalogue record, 8th from the top. https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/1454513 Pennsylvania, City of Philadelphia, marriages, 1916-1950; marriage index books, 1885-1951
I searched just using the number as I typed it. Perhaps you may have included the # symbol, which may have confused things.
