Girl with two soldiers in an old film (4)
I believe the answer is:
gigi
'old film' is the definition.
'gigi' can be an answer for 'film' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'old' bit.
'girl with two soldiers in' is the wordplay.
'two soldiers' can mean two replacements for 'soldier'.
'girl' becomes 'g'.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'soldier' becomes 'GI' (term for US soldier).
'soldier' becomes 'i' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'gi'+'i' is 'gii'.
'g' going within 'gii' is 'GIGI'.
'an' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for gigi that I've seen before include "Movie" , "Lerner and Loewe musical and film" , "Musical, winner of nine Academy Awards" , "1958 film musical from a Colette novel" , "Play" .)
