Second, isn't it illegal to actually own a 35mm print of a copyrighted movie?  I thought there was discussion around here a while ago about that.  Didn't somebody get fined or arrested for having 35mm prints of copyrighted movies?

 

No, it's not automatically illegal to own a 35mm print. 

Roddy McDowell had his 35mm collection confiscated, but it was more about how the films were obtained than about the fact that they were 35mm.
