SFW originally sold respooled movie film and processed it to negative,
as it is supposed to be, and then made prints and also printed on
positive film to provide slides. They were kind of lousy and had to be
developed either by SFW or by Dale or other such companies, because the
jet backing on the movie stock would gunk up commercial processors.
Then SFW started selling regular C41 film and doing the same process,
but they implied it was different so you'd have to go to them for
processing. The downside was that even though ANY commercial processor
could process the film, they were all afraid of it because of the old
days of the movie stock. I THINK what you've got is the newer C41 film,
but cannot be sure. Rocky Mountain photo labs will process it if it's
the movie stock, but at about $35 plus dollars aroll.
