I once wrote a novel that was filmed. A rather famous (but ageing) film star played a secondary part, so the screenplay was revised to enlarge his role. And sometimes the actors just vamped.

So another character ad libbed a line that caused our rather famous actor to choke on his coffee. "You son of a --," he said. "You sneaked that one in on me!" It stayed in the movie because it seemed real, which of course it was.

That was my reaction when I saw "apodictic." I had to look it up!
