Personal accounts are good because they lessen the liability against
future taxes of the retiree while sequestering the funds he's been
paying in so they cannot be used to mask current general fund deficits.

Not at all. Basically, Agfa in the 1930s designed a process with very
different chemistry than Kodachrome, which predated the Kodak color
stuff. It was very easy to process (much easier than Ekta, even), and
gave wonderful pastel tones. Agfa developed reversal and negative versions
using the same basic technology in the fifties, and at the same time
Ansco was selling US-made film using similar technology.

Agfa continued selling this process for many years. In the seventies
they also introduced some Kodak-compatible films but for the most part
they kept using the traditional oily-dye-coupler technology from before
the war.

The Sovcolor process was basically the result of the Soviets picking up
an Agfa plant during the war and shipping it back to Kiev. It was based
on the pre-war Agfa technology, which Agfa continued using in the west
until the 1980s. That plant continues to operate and continues to
make film using the oily-dye-coupler technology.

All the Tarkovsky, Konchalovsky etc stuff that I've seen used ORWO stock,which
I believe is the East German derivative of AGFA. I think SIBERIADA (CA 1981)
is the first one I've seen using Eastman chemistry, and I'm not even sure if
my memory serves me well on that one.

Did Orwo even make a color stock? They made some really top notch B&W
stocks (and still do).
