Most of the consumer print films are designed to reduce the warming effect
of incandescent lighting, though not eliminate it. I think the Kodak Portra
line has some of this built in.

The other pro Kodak color negative film, Supra, does not have this built and
will be yellower than consumer and Portra under incandescent lights. Supra,
a replacement for the PJ films, has as one of it's design goals 'color
accuracy', so doesn't try to cancel out the warmer lighting effects.
