You and I back film genre (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

western

'film genre' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'you and i back' is the wordplay.
'you and i' becomes 'we'.
'back' becomes 'stern' (I've seen this before).
'we'+'stern'='WESTERN'

(Other definitions for western that I've seen before include "Cowboys and Indians movie" , "Cowboys and Indians film" , "Spaghetti film?" , "Old film genre, horse opera" , "Type of film or music" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
