Hollywood moment

1. A highly dramatic act or moment, as might happen in a film. I'll never forget that Hollywood moment with my first love, standing out in the rain, awaiting the train that would take her away from me forever. Yeah, this saga won't end in a Hollywood moment for ordinary people like us. All we'll end up with is a lot of legal fees and paperwork. My first kiss was totally awkward and not a Hollywood moment at all!

2. A moment or period of time when one or one's actions are featured in a film. The local sheriff had his Hollywood moment this afternoon as a film crew followed his day-to-day activities for an upcoming documentary. No, I don't need a Hollywood moment. I'm quite all right with my book not being turned into a movie. I hope I have an actual Hollywood moment ahead of me. The local news is cool and all, but more people need to hear my story!
