1. Inspired by — mid-century monochrome art cinema. High-contrast black and white, hard key light, deep blacks, figures isolated against plain walls, rain on glass.

2. Recommended settings — 0.9–1.0. This one wants to be monochrome and is at its best when the prompt agrees. On brightly coloured subject matter the style can break and return full colour, so if you need it to hold, keep the prompt achromatic and raise strength rather than lower it.

3. Training — 65 images, 1500 steps (**23 passes**), save every 250. Captioned silvfilm style still, <scene>, <lighting>.

Steps: 1500 · Epochs: 11.5 (1 epoch = 130 steps = 2 passes over 65 images) · Checkpoints: every 250 steps → 6 saves · Passes: 23.1
