Leopold Godowsky plays the violin while Leopold Mannes sits at the piano with a cable release in his hand. 1/10 at f/4. 35 mm Kodachrome Type A. From Town and Country April 1940. The picture on the wall is of David and Clara Damrosch Mannes, Leopold Mannes' parents.

Seems so...

Many, many years ago I exposed a lot of Kodachrome films in the USA bought there without processing included. Having brought those films back to Germany I inquired at a renown professional photo supplier. I was offered special Kodak envelopes, bought them, sent my films to Kodak. And, never saw any of those films again... Enough reason for me to process my films by myself.

How about this.
Kodachrome in other chemicals.
Would it even develop a proper image in E6 or C41?
I'd imagine it wouldn't look 'right' but would it even do anything?

Old old old question.

In E6 or C41, Kodachrome will give blank, clear film.

RoBBo,

Doing so would only result in a blank film.
You are right "it wouldn't look right"...

Both processes develop a silver image. The E-6 process even two, a negative and a positive. Bad sad enough both are bleached out later within the process.

Kodachrome has got NO colour couplers in the emulsion, thus called `non-substantive´, and thus needs a process which transferes those into the emulsion.

C-41 and E-6 films HAVE got couplers within the emulsion, thus called `substantive´.

I've never tried it myself, but it's my understanding that Kodachrome can be processed in conventional B&W developers, yielding a B&W negative. I suppose that would qualify as colors that "wouldn't look 'right.'" I'm not sure why you'd want to do such a thing, unless maybe you've got some long-expired Kodachrome and you just want to play around with it. Conventional B&W films are far less expensive than Kodachrome.

To my understanding this is done to yield a timely result.

Kodachrome, or any color film, developed in a B&W process will yield a good negative with a heavy yellow cast due to the incorporated blue absorbing CLS layer.

These negatives are very difficult to print on MG papers.

What "destroys" this layer?

Being silver (Carey Lea silver) it is removed by bleach.
