Artist in a film one tried to see (5)
I believe the answer is:
monet
'artist' is the definition.
(painter Claude Monet)
'a film one tried to see' is the wordplay.
'MONET' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I am not sure how this is indicated.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for monet that I've seen before include "French impressionist (Waterlilies)" , "Claude -, French artist" , "French landscape painter" , "French artist shown in ..." , "French Impressionist with famous garden" .)
