Home Alone
Home Alone is a 1990 film that starred Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister, an eight year-old who is mistakenly left behind when his family flies to France for a Christmas vacation.
The film made Macaulay Culkin famous. The film also features Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern as the "Wet Bandits," a bumbling pair of burglars who try to rob the McCallister home, believing it to be an easy mark with the family absent. The duo, unfortunately for themselves, run into numerous booby traps set by the resourceful Kevin throughout the house. Catherine O'Hara and John Heard also co-star.
Sequels are Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992), Home Alone 3 and Home Alone 4; however, Culkin only appeared in Home Alone 2.
