Heads for front in large movie cinema? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

film

'cinema?' is the definition.
(I know that cinema can be written as film)

'heads for front in large movie' is the wordplay.
'heads for' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letters of 'front in large movie' is 'FILM'.

(Other definitions for film that I've seen before include "Cinema celebrity" , "Motion picture" , "Cinema entertainment" , "Thin layer - seen on screens" , "Thin coating for movie." .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
