River gods rose unexpectedly in film (9,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reservoir dogs

'film' is the definition.

'river gods rose unexpectedly' is the wordplay.
'unexpectedly' indicates an anagram.
'river'+'gods'+'rose'='rivergodsrose'
'rivergodsrose' is an anagram of 'RESERVOIR DOGS'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for reservoir dogs that I've seen before include "Crime drama film (1991)" , "Quentin Tarantino film" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
