Ducks from thrown boomerang (7)
I believe the answer is:
bergman
'boomerang' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bergman that I've seen before include "Ingmar ---, director; Ingrid ---, actress" , "Ingrid -, Swedish actress (Casablanca)" , "Female star of the 1942 film Casablanca, d.1982" , "6 24 113 [SCAN-DIN-AVIAN] filmmaker" , "Film people Ingmar and Ingrid" .)
