Revolutionary augury one found in movie? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nemo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one found in movie?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'revolutionary augury' is the wordplay.
'revolutionary' says the letters should be written backwards (letters revolve around).
'augury' becomes 'omen' (omen is a kind of augury).
'omen' backwards is 'NEMO'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nemo that I've seen before include "Captain brought to book" , "Captain of the Nautilus" , "- me impune lacessit (motto of Scotland)" , "Fish sought in film" , "Literary captain" .)
