If I understand you correctly it's the acctual film material that has
shrunken, so you can not run it in a normal projector.

What is normally done is that you use certain "pressure chambers" so that
the film re-sizes to normal size. I have no idea were to find these in the
US though. But I guess high quality restoration places should have the right
equipment.
