When you find old film in the freezer and give it a chance. Opinions, please.
I found a Bulk roll of old Fuji Slide copying film (CDU2/35mm) in the freezer and today I did give it a shot. I loaded a 12 Exp. Roll of it and shot it at the end of a portrait session in the studio. Its a tungsten balanced slide film, but I cross developed it in C41 chemistry and I must say I´m intrigued. Although the cross processing did not have beneficial impact on the film grain, it has an aesthetic of itself. What do you think ? If you found any old film, would you try it ?

Btw, gear used: Eos 1-HS; EF-85mm 1.2
Use expired film all the time, have 20 rolls of 2004 deep freeze expired Ektachrome film in the fridge. Here's a photo from one of the rolls.
