If you get the really "strong" ones, it is possible to block the x-ray machines completely. However this will result in you being hauled away for a little one on one time with the security guards. If you use them for your carry-on luggage, again you will set yourself up for special attention. The best thing is to use clear plastic ziplock bags with the film completely unpacked for easy inspection. Apparently some airlines and countries do not allow any carry-on luggage so you had better check first and explain your situation carefully. You may be out of luck and will have to arrange for the purchase and processing of your film at your destination.
