Plays followed by blue film (3,5)
I believe the answer is:
toy story
'film' is the definition.
'plays followed by blue' is the wordplay.
'plays' becomes 'toys' (I've seen this before).
'followed by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'blue' becomes 'tory' (I've seen this before).
'toys'+'tory'='TOY STORY'
(Another definition for toy story that I've seen is " made by D [Disney]".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
