Colour film — live golf — repeatedly cut up (10)
I believe the answer is:
exaggerate
'colour film' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being verbs in their base form.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for exaggerate that I've seen before include "Overstate; intensify" , "Stretch" , "Overdo" , "Overstate unduly" .)
