Made like a movie star
He made like a movie star.
I want to know whether 'like a movie star' is adjectival or adverbial.
I suppose that's adjectival rather than adverbial. My parsing is that:
She died young
= She died. + She was young
She made like a movie star
= She made (acted). + She was like a movie star
Top answer
It seems adverbial to me. It describes the way in which she acted.
- It seems adverbial to me.
- It describes the way in which she acted.

Adjectives modify nouns. What noun do you see in the sentence He made like a movie star which might be the noun that 'like a movie star' modifies?
