getting very tired of arista.edu curl in 120

Foma (aka Arista.EDU Ultra) films are also odd in that the 35mm variety has a clear/gray base and poor anti-halation characteristics, whereas the MF variety has a blue base and much better anti-halation characteristics. I'm not sure what the story is there, but it could well have something to do with the lack of curl in 35mm vs. substantial curl in MF to which Bobby refers.
 

How bad is the halation on the 35mm version? Worth playing around with for effect? Or just bad enough to be annoying?

I think it is something worth exploring. I discovered it by accident when shooting high contrast indoor scenes.
