A weekly meta crossword created by members of the forum. Difficulty levels will vary. Hints are usually available starting Wednesday, and solutions are posted on Sunday.
Good morning. The MMM did not see its shadow last Thursday so here we are again in early February. This week’s puzzle is “Missing Something.” One of things it’s missing is a snappy introduction. Another is a banner photo across the top of this screen that seems to have become de rigueur for the MMM (why does nobody tell me these things?). Oh well, let’s get to it. But first, thanks to @Abide and @Al Sisti for suggestions and to @Joe Ross for proofreading and linkifying.
The answer is a movie.
It’s movie you know and know well. You will not need Google or ChatGPT. But the level of difficulty may be a notch higher than usual just to balance out the extraordinarily easy MGWCC from this past weekend.
PM me with your answer, or for instant gratification use Crosshare. Deadline Saturday evening; nudges Wednesday, or earlier if needed.
Hey, where is everybody? Was it something I said? Or maybe it was what I didn’t say. Maybe this will make up for that. There are four thematic elements (actually lines) to the mechanism, symmetrically placed.
Needed Google 3 or 4 times to finish the grid , but only needed the nudge to solve the meta. Fun stuff, thanks.

Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!
Good and clever mechanism but... little out of left field
Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.
