70's Motion Picture Film

After finding a roll of old Ilford film in an old camera I bought recently, I remembered I had a few 50ft canisters of very expired Ilford motion picture film ( Ilford MK.V), with not a lot of info, other than "date of test 1973". Thankfully found a blog post by someone who had the exact same film and had done a bunch of research and tests (link below) but I had not got around to testing myself, as I don't have a bulk film loader.
Decided today to just load a roll by hand, onto an empty used canister, and see how it turned out...have to say, for such an expired film, I'm quite impressed at how well it has held up!
Rated the film at 40 ISO, shot with Praktica LTL3/Carl Zeiss Jena 50mm f2.8 and processed in Caffenol-C.
Blog post which helped me figure out how to rate the film etc..
