Example sentence:
This was the first time she played the main character in a film—the movie of her life(,) in this case.
Do I need the comma in this case?
Note: I made a Google search. But since Google omits punctuation, I couldn't find a very satisfactory answer.
Best Answer
Yes and no.
If you were going to include 'in this case' you would write:
This was the first time she played the main character in a film, the movie of her life, in this case.
But to the point, 'in this case' doesn't sound correct here and isn't needed at all. So:
This was the first time she played the main character in a film, the movie of her life.
