I believe the answer is:

road movie

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

'film about journey' is the definition.
I know that both 'film' and 'journey' relate to this answer.

'course taken will arouse emotion captivating individual' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'course' could be 'road' (I've seen this before) and 'road' is found within the answer.
'individual' could be 'i' (Roman numeral for one) and 'i' is present in the answer.
'arouse' could be 'move' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'move' is present in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'making' is the link.
