## Image prompt
Close-up cinematic profile shot of a muscular man with short dark hair standing in front of a large window at night. Warm lamp light from inside gently illuminates the side of his face. His reflection on the glass is visible but slightly distorted. Outside the window is a dark, empty city at night. High-contrast black and white, dramatic lighting, subtle film grain, lonely and introspective atmosphere, shallow depth of field, widescreen cinematic composition, 16:9 aspect ratio.
