I showed my daughter "The Small One" last night and my print faded to Green. There's still Blues, Yellows, and Reds, but Green? It's the strangest thing I've ever seen. Is this the cause of some acid breakdown or just a fluke?

I've heard of this and I have a very greenish 16mm feature, although I can't be certain that it has faded as it was like that when I got it. I vaguely recall hearing someone say that this can happen with a particular Agfa stock, so it would be interesting to know if that's what your film is on.

I have a few prints that are green and mostly they are losing the blues. Still more watchable than red however.

What film stock are these prints on. Not heard of this one before. I wonder if it's down to poor processing?
