Prompt

Recreate the person in the photo as the lead in a 1940s film noir. Keep the face, features and skin tone from the uploaded photo exactly as they are. They stand in a dim office, wearing [a trench coat and fedora], as hard light through venetian blinds paints stripes across the face and wall. Black-and-white, deep shadows, a desk lamp glowing, rain on the window. 35mm film grain, high contrast, mysterious mood.
