    There was a report yesterday by Léonie that imovie '11 (version 9) does not work with Sierra.  This is not entirely surprising since it was already giving problems with El Capitan so I think you will have to update to iMovie 10.1.2.

    I assumed you were using version 9 ('11) since that it what your profile says.   In that case I would try the usual troubleshooting steps:

     

    Launch iMovie with the option key held down (it will not try to load any library and leave you to choose one). 

     

    Delete preferences by restarting your computer, and launching iMovie holding down option and command keys.  Select the delete preferences option in the dialogue box which appears.

     

    Launch iMovie with a different user account such as a guest account.

     

    Geoff.
