How do you achieve "old film" grade? (Examples linked)

I can't seem to figure out how to replicate what these creators are doing to achieve the 90's movies vibe:

I've tried DMing her and her bf who helps her to no avail.

I've attempted to slap a 35mm film grain on etc. but can't seem to get that vibe just right. Is there someone that can point me in the right direction on how to learn to replicate this look?

This is the closest I got... but I don't feel like I got it right for whatever reason. Please let me know what's wrong with this and what I could do to get it closer to the references I gave! I've been trying for weeks now to no avail :(
