Search on youtube for “cinelerra” a free video editor for examples and tutorials. I would guess what you want to do will take post-production rendering. Those 70s shows, like “The Streets of San Francisco”, were the first movies shot just using available-light films. Even so, I think it was 128-ASA and they pushed it to 400-ASA. They are so high-contrast, even outdoors or in a lit sound stage (like a detective office) that I cringe to think about them. Oftentime you’d see just a white face bobbing around. The trenchcoat blended in with the shadows.
I do know cinelerra comes with the scratched film filter already built in for render out.
