Description

Probably not complete, and some of these I'm less sure about being "Hollywood," but this list is movies released by Hollywood (meaning US movie and not an import) that have signs of Magical Realism.

Definition from Wikipedia: "Magical realism is an artistic genre in which magical elements or illogical scenarios appear in an otherwise realistic or even "normal" setting."

This list will probably shrink and grow for a while as I fiddle with it. Suggestions and comments welcome.
