Everyone who suggested film changes, suggested slide
film. One reason given was to eliminate failures in the
printing process. Another was more accurate color
reproduction and better contrast.

Right, I love the way some people advise slides for color accuracy, then go off into long discussions of the different color/contrast characteristics of different slide films :-)

A lot of people have suggested the shot was improperly
exposed. More people suggested it was over-exposed then
under. Over exposure seems a good explanation because the
highlights would have been blown and any gradation of
color lost.
Really unlikely that the film is overexposed. Color neg films have at least 3 stop latitude on the overexposure side. Blown out or compressed highlights in printing is much more likely.
