FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image in the following art style:
glossy 1960s melodrama in the spirit of Douglas Sirk — rich Technicolor (mint, coral, golden yellow), glamorous studio lighting with a soft halo on the heroine's face, immaculate retro sets (floral wallpaper, crystal, chrome service), dynamic editing with quick transitions, varied camera angles including high angles, reflections in metal and mirrors, a low camera from the floor, Dutch tilts, sharp snap-zooms and whip-pans, rack focus, retro serif titles.
Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom.
