This article delves into some lesser-known facts and trivia about the beloved Christmas classic, Home Alone. From the rapid screenplay writing to John Candy's improvisational genius, discover some fascinating insights into the making of this iconic film.
Home Alone , the classic Christmas movie from 1990 directed by Chris Columbus and written by John Hughes , still delights audiences young and old every holiday season with its perfect blend of heartwarming moments and slapstick humor. Starring Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister, a young boy who’s accidentally left at home when his family goes on vacation and who subsequently has to defend his home against a pair of burglars, it was certainly a staple of my childhood and probably yours, too.
Never mind that the film defined holiday nostalgia for a generation and remains endlessly rewatchable. Critics are still gonna do their thing and miss the timeless charm and heart. A bigger actor was considered for the role of Harry, the burglar. Joe Pesci gave audiences perhaps the most beloved role of his career in the form of Harry, one half of the 'Wet Bandits' in Home Alone.
