I may have been a bit bold trying to jump straight in to nighttime photography on my very first roll of film but I think I was able to get away with it. This was shot at EV+1 which I think held the shutter open longer than I expected, causing some shake.

Yeah, +1 with that film is equivalent to ISO 200. You'll get long exposures at night. C-41 film is actually quite forgiving, you can push it to EV -1 and trade speed for grain size. Even -2 in a pinch, depending on the scene and your tolerance for high contrast / low shadow detail.
