Think a 1989 expired ektachrome 64 110 film would still work?

I've found a listing for some 1989 expired E64s in 110, and I'm wondering- you think I could still get images off a roll if I used it? otherwise, it would make a neat shelf item.

Also, I did try a 1988 expired Kodacolor VR-G 126 film in a point and shoot camera this past fall, and the negative came back ultra dense.
 
I've had some reasonable results from ~1985-88 ektachrome 64 rolls I got from someone. Some color shifts, and a bit grainy (on 120 film, 110 should be much more grainy).
 
Just these days I read a report on the approach of a guy on such films: he used for 1st-developer a high-active agent, but at a very low temperature (5°C).

Well... Two years ago I shot a 120 E64 120. Easily the second most decrepit roll I've shot to date.

I had a 1980 expired E400 I shot last year hold up much better.

No idea how a point and shoot camera will handle old expired film.
