Compare these two: I've had photos that looked like both, all taken with the current version of Tri-X. I think it depends on the conditions of the photo, the development, and the scan, not the film, although I understand that Tri-X has been slightly modified at least once since its introduction. The 1972 photo is slightly overexposed, I think. Pull those shadows down and it'll look a lot like the 2001 photo. The 1972 photo looks cleaner, actually, but that is probably because there was less contrast in the original scene, or something (there are multiple possibilities).
