(But, only annoyingly unfair questions deserve to be destroyed.  Maybe, today’s Jumble heroine was Susan Sontag!  I think you could make a good argument for that!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

CATEU  =  ACUTE,  TREXE  =  EXERT,  XREVOT  =  VORTEX,  ARYPOD  =  PARODY   —   Giving us:  CTEERVREAOD

Clue/Question:  When the director asked the movie star to do the scene again, she – – –

Answer:  OVER REACTED

(Donna, Donna, the Prima Donna!  Is this Gal, or Scarlett?  Whoever it is, I think Ms. Gerwig can handle her.  All of today’s jumbles are new, while the clue words are all tried and true.   It took me more than a glance to see, that the last clue word was “parody”.
