Initially, I looked for all 35A films with one-word titles. Some of them and black blocks were put in the grid, then the possible fill came right up and struck me (not slapped): 30D crossing the middle of 35A in the middle of the grid! It does symbolize the real disaster last year. CODA should have been more outstanding smasher but, well, someone instead just apparently made a bigger hit! Enough with puns now. Hope you like the clues!
