George, I think blues and greens are really in now anyway especially with
Fuji films - you know those intense greens that make the grass better than
reality....

Hi Chris

Depending on the wavelength of the green... Just about any of the new
and improved films should handle it quite well. I seem to remember that
the new Supra 400 (is it still made?) had good reciprocity
characteristics. And I know the old Portra 400VC did very well recording
anything but red, even when shot with a 50mm lens at f/11 for 10 minutes
(DAMHIK).
