My goto B&W film is Arista Edu 200 in 100’ rolls because it is cheap. Movie moguls aside, projecting 35mm movie film at home is impractical because there never was much of a consumer market for projectors or cameras because 35mm movies are at an industrial scale. The projectors are big loud bright and hot. 16mm film would be about the limit for a hobbyist, and it is good enough for a feature film (but not a studio blockbuster). It’s about 1/4 the size of 35mm. Also worth knowing that 35mm movie film requires bespoke processing due to the remjet layer to prevent halation and static charge buildup. And processing 16mm movie film is not cheap.
