If I understand correctly, the speed of such films is related to the
grain - ie they are probably very grainy.
Such films can afford to be very grainy because when they are
projected at 30 frames per second (?) the human eye/brain cannot
remember the grain from frame to frame - it integrates the images and
they appear sharp when actualy individual frames are not.
I suspect the effort and expense required to even trial such film
would not be worth the expense and effort - but then again I could be
entirely wrong and you might make a great discovery.
