Taken directly from the link below:

British/American word preference. Like the lift/elevator thingie. The Brits use Film, the Americans Movie.

Just the spelling!

Film is the "correct" word but "movie", "flick", (even "talkie" if you like!) and so on are perfectly acceptable. Movie is the most common nickname for a film but it means exactly the same thing.

Film means it will be only at small screens with limited showings.
