Crossword Genius

Awfully famous old picture? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

notorious

This clue is a double definition.

'awfully famous' is the first definition.
(famous for an awful reason)

'old picture?' is the second definition.
(1946 film)

(Other definitions for notorious that I've seen before include "worthy of shame?" , "Having a bad name" , "Disreputable - 1946 Hitchcock classic" , "Undesirably well-known" , "Infamous" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
