Subject: [Leica] Need film and paper recommendations for an "old school" style project.

This summer one of my classes is photo journalism, and I'm wanting to  
shoot images a bit "old school", or retro style, just to be  
different.  Already decided I'm using the M6 and I'm going to use  
Pyro to develop (everybody else is shooting digi), but I was curious  
if anybody had recommendations for an old style thick emulsion, high  
silver content film as well as a paper and paper developer that will  
have a similar feel to it.  I was thinking maybe ADOX paper and maybe  
the JandC Classic Pan 400 film, no idea yet for paper developer other  
than to stick with dektol, but I'm definitely open to any and all  
suggestions.

Any and all input is gladly welcomed.

Gerald
