Didn't see that coming from writer behind film faculty
I believe the answer is:
short-sighted
'didn't see that coming' is the definition.
The definition and answer are not the same part of speech.
'writer behind film faculty' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'writer' could be 'ed' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'ed' is present in the answer.
'faculty' could be 'sight' (sight is a kind of faculty) and 'sight' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'short' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'from' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for short-sighted that I've seen is " Myopic".)
