In the US, it’s a violation of copyright. You could be sued, but wouldn’t likely be arrested.
I would say that the odds of being sued are minimal, close to nonexistent, if it is just a few close friends and family. Jellyfin uses password protection which helps, but you can improve your odds of staying off the media companies’ radar by keeping the server on a private VPN like Tailscale and remembering the rules of Fight Club.
Oh Fightclub! I love that movie, I downloaded it to my Jellyfin!

I think you're talking about that public domain movie with a similar title.
