Resources for practicing post-production?

So I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, and I apologise if it isn't.

I've been doing music tech (Mostly audio recording, mixing and mastering) for a couple of years now but one thing I've been wanting to get my hands on and never done properly is audio production for film, I want to try Foley, Sound design and writing original music.

I was wondering if it was possible to get hold of clips of film that had the original on-site recorded audio but nothing else? I realise that this is quite a niche thing to ask for and that such resources probably aren't readily available on the internet, but I thought it'd be worth asking to see if there was anything I could get hold of to help me so I could give it a go and have a play around without having any obligations to produce a product.

I know I could just cut the audio from a film clip and do it that way, which is what I'm sure I'll end up doing if I can't find anything else, but it would be nice to have dialogue as well as it being from something I've not seen before.

Thanks.

One thing worth trying as well if you're trying to run the gamut of Post-Production is to do some simple ADR work. Get a movie trailer/clip from a film and strip out everything, and get yourself and your friends to re-do the dialogue as well.

That's a really good idea actually! I can imagine it'd be a good laugh if nothing else :')
