I’m pretty sure it’s not just Hollywood, I’ve seen old drawings and paintings of people in battle or duels and they always only use one hand to aim and fire pistols, even after multishot revolvers and pistols are developed.
Why? It’s not like using two hands only became more supportive and stable after 1910.

The pistols were so shitty back then you had to stand directly in front of eachother during a duel and still that didn’t mean anyone would get a hit. You stood to the side to make your target as small as possible
