10 Classic Movie Wizards Who Aren’t Harry Potter
Movies are magic, which might explain why there are so many flicks with wizards, and sorcerers. Wise and powerful parental figures who help fill in plot holes with exposition, supply magical plot devices, or appear in the final act as a handy, ready-made deus ex machina.
