Censored Smoke Movie stills

Prompt
Create a moody cinematic film still in a dark, smoky interior. A {argument name="subject" default="young woman with pale skin and wild dark curly hair"} is framed in a close medium shot from the chest up, slightly off-center, holding one lit white cigarette between the fingers of her left hand near her mouth. Her face is deliberately hidden by one large opaque square censor block in muted dark brown-gray, centered over the entire face from forehead to chin. Visible details include one thin ring on her finger, bare shoulders with a dark burgundy or black off-shoulder garment slipping down, loose curls catching rim light, drifting cigarette smoke, and a tense intimate atmosphere. Use a {argument name="color grade" default="greenish sepia low-light film noir grade"} with heavy shadows, soft grain, shallow depth of field, and warm blurred light glowing on the far right side of the background. The setting should feel like an old dim room or bar with indistinct walls and furniture, not a modern clean studio. Compose in a widescreen {argument name="aspect ratio" default="16:9"} frame, realistic photography, natural skin texture, soft focus background, dramatic backlighting, no readable text, no watermark.Example output
