Crossword Genius

Film award for Hammerstein? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oscar

This clue is a double definition.

'film award' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'hammerstein?' is the second definition.
(Oscar Hammerstein is an example)

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for oscar that I've seen before include "academy's prize" , "Title of Hollywood Academy award" , "- - Peterson, pianist" , "Phonetic code for O" , "Award by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Independent.
