I have no idea what your Huck Finn movie is, that is to say I am not
sure I could get it as a file that VLC on Ubuntu could view. I have VLC
and I added the secret codex so it can display DVD movies and I do this
often full screen.
The windows .wmv files I watch with VLC and there are some others like
the .mpg which VLC displays just fine in full screen.
I think you need to play with VLC and see if you can learn to use it.
Click on Video and then Full Screen and see how that works.
