Does modern L lenses work with an old canon body like the Canon eos-1n

Troubleshooting - Gear

Hi, has anyone have experience with adapting an L lens with an older SLR body from the 90s - 00s?

Specifically a Canon L 16-35 f2.8 with a body like eos-1n or 1v? Basically digital lenses on a film body. I have the lens laying around and thought would be a good idea to get an affordable camera to pair with it and try to get into film.

Would like to do a thorough survey before pulling the trigger. All comments are deeply appreciated!
