it was imovie 2.0.1 under macOS 9.0.4. the application bombed, afterwards the project did no longer recognize it's clips, except for two that were obviously corrupt. imovie was crashing again after trying to import any of the unrecognized but previously used clips.

it's too late to recover anything. i've upgraded imovie and macos and started from scratch.

thanx for your interest

I've had that problem.
I assume you've downloaded an update. I also guess the startup is packed with error-messages, cause OS X has taken over the files.
Delete iMovie and reinstall.
Delete+reinstall always works for me.
