How do I get the Facetime app for the computer. I go to the Apples store and see 3 choices but neither look like the icon that I use for my iPhone.

Sorry, must have had a "senior moment" there and confused FaceTime with Screen Time.
FaceTime is an app, but it only comes with macOS installation. It is not available as a separate download from Mac App Store.
If it's not visible in the Dock, look for it in the Applications folder. You can also perform a Spotlight/Siri search for it by name.
Some countries do not allow it and it can be restricted by the computer Administrator.

Your latter suggestion was what I needed. I found it in applications and it is now on the dock so I can call it up when I need it. It did bring up one other issue when I called using FaceTime and that is how to get the camera to go to full screen instead of a narrow view. Is that predetermined or can it be changed to a wider view in the camera?
FaceTime is not an app, but a setting in System Preferences. You need to be running on macOS Catalina to have it.
I have macOS Catalina but couldn't find FaceTime in System Preferences. How do I get it and install it on my MacBook Pro laptop?
To enlarge use the Zoom option in Window menu.
Command-R is supposed to switch between Landscape and Portrait modes, but it doesn’t work for me.
