Requirements for a film camera (eg 35mm)?

So. I'm interested in buying a film camera but I'm really new to photography etc so I'm not sure what to look for in a film camera. Mum tells me the best ones are Nikon, Canon and I believe Olympus. She's done some courses on photography but she doesn't remember much about cameras so I'm referring for help here. First of all, what do they mean by 35mm, 50mm etc? Also, apart from the camera, what else is required? I'm in UK so I'm wondering what would be the average pricing to have your photos developed at a shop? And what kind of shops do they develop the photos? Any other notes would be nice.

Eg;
