Some projected amusements (5)

I believe the answer is:

films

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'some projected amusements' is the definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for films that I've seen before include "pictures" , "Movies" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
