Since the chemistry was proprietary (and required a lot of skill and manual
manipulation), probably not.  You now have a new paperweight.

I had a roll I was meaning to get processed but forgot about. It wasn't even
mine. It came  with an old camera I bought about 10 years ago. The roll has
the older orangish end caps. After doing some research I figured it might
not take to modern development because Kodak had made some sort of change to
the film and this can was pretty old. Does anybody know if there are any
bootleg developing efforts being planned other than black and white?
