Some videos in photos don't show up in iMovie media. How do I export video into iMovie?

On my MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012), El Capitan V10.11.6 some of the videos I need from photos (Version 1.5 (370.42.0)) don't show up in the photos media on iMovie (V10.1.6). They are in perfect order in photos, but all mixed up in iMovie media with many videos missing. I have restarted both iMovie & iPhotos several times. How do I export them into iMovie? They don't drag & drop.

MacBook Pro 15", OS X 10.11

Try dragging the videos onto your desktop, and from there drag them into iMovie.
