Film version that is suppressed by Missouri (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

movie

'film' is the definition.
(movie film is a kind of film)

'version that is suppressed by missouri' is the wordplay.
'version' becomes 'v' (v1, v2 etc).
'that is' becomes 'ie' (short for Latin 'id est', 'that is').
'suppressed by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'missouri' becomes 'mo' (abbreviation for the US state).
'v'+'ie'='vie'
'vie' after 'mo' is 'MOVIE'.

(Other definitions for movie that I've seen before include "Cinema film (mainly US)" , "one screened" , "Cinema production" , "Flick" , "picture" .)
