Sometimes a movie adaptation of a novel I’ve read is popular, and when people refer to the actions of the characters they would say the name of the actors instead. Recently it was with Dangerous Liaisons, and the imagery was somewhat strange.

    Can’t remember the character’s name and fluidity of conversation supercedes pedantry in this case.

      I’m very pedantic and will often say “Chris Pratt’s character” instead of “Chris Pratt”, but that’s just my unnecessary pedantry, if you just say the actor’s name, people know what you mean
