Looking pale after a cinema's shot (7)
I believe the answer is:
anaemic
'looking pale' is the definition.
'anaemic' can be an answer for 'pale' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'looking' bit.
'after a cinema's shot' is the wordplay.
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'shot' is an anagram indicator.
'cinema' anagrammed gives 'naemic'.
'a' put next to 'naemic' is 'ANAEMIC'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for anaemic that I've seen before include "Pale and weak, lacking vigour" , "Lacking red blood cells" , "Pale, sickly" , "Pale, weak in colour" , "uninspiring" .)
