Thrifty way to make cinema cool (10)
I believe the answer is:
economical
'thrifty' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'make cinema cool' is the wordplay.
'make' is an anagram indicator.
'cinema'+'cool'='cinemacool'
'cinemacool' anagrammed gives 'ECONOMICAL'.
'way to' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for economical that I've seen before include "Money-saving" , "Inexpensive" , "Reasonable" , "Careful" , "saving money" .)
