Basic Photography Question...

I have only dealt with digital photography and have never really had experience to SLR 35mm...

On digital, to take good low-light pics, you need a longer shutter speed and maybe a little higher ISO setting (400 or 800).

How do they compinsate for it on 35mm? Do they also use slower shutter speeds? Do they also blur real bad if the camera wiggles? On high ISO digital pics, they often appear "grainy". Do low speed films also appear grainy?

Thanks for any help on those questions.... I was just curious.
 
Film is the exact same.

Except film is more versatile than a CCD and therefore long exposures aren't as grainy.

yeah. higher speed film = more grainy but you the shutter speeds are faster. hence faster speed film.

double the the film speed and gain a full stop of light.

shutter + apeture + ISO = exposure
