If film is being processed with a "dip n dunk" machine or continuous strand,
the only way to give one roll of film special processing would be to clear
all film out of the machine and do a special run for that one roll. AFAIK,
all C41 type, E6 type any ASA, receive the same processing. I did my time
in several labs, B&W and color, running the machines, printing and printing
weddings (yuck).
