I once used bounce flash, aimed essentially at the ceiling, in a room with white walls and ceiling and Kodachrome in my M6 (about which I've got to get off my lazy butt and sell). This would still be valid today with the added degree of freedom that LR and it's relatives would permit the use of non-white walls.
