Home Alone (Screen 1)

Macaulay Culkin gives an all-time memorable performance as troublemaker Kevin McCallister, an eight-year-old kid who is mistakenly left home alone when his family heads to Paris for the holiday season. His excitement at having the house to himself soon sours when a pair of burglars attempt to rob his residence on Christmas Eve, leaving Kevin no choice but to defend his domain. Written by John Hughes, HOME ALONE is packed with plenty of heart and humor, which has cemented its status as the quintessential holiday classic for anyone who grew up in the '90s.
