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.

Because they conflate the actor and the character. Very popular in the USA I feel (could be wrong, but where I live we don't do that).
