Hollywood is a trick play that the offense runs when there are runners on first and third. The runner on first pretends to start running, but "trips and falls". They are trying to entice the defense to try to get them out. As soon as the defensive falls for it, the runner at third is supposed to break home. If there are two outs the runner must score before the player is tagged out for the run to count. If there is less than two out all the runner has to do is reach home safely for the run to count.
