"Home Alone" is a popular 1990 holiday film starring Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister, an eight year-old boy. After an argument with his family the night before, Kevin McCallister was accidentally left behind when his family left suburban Chicago to go on a Christmas vacation to Paris. At first he was excited to experience what it was like to be independent for the first time. This independence had some good sides such as being able to sleep in his parent's king-sized bed, and some bad sides such as having to go into the scary basement alone. He was also wary of his neighbor. Two burglars tried to rob the McCallister home, believing it to be an easy work with the family's absence. Unfortunately for themselves, they ran into numerous traps set by Kevin throughout the house. The next day, the two burglars returned and tried to capture Kevin, but his neighbor helped him to fight them. Kevin was finally reunited with his family. The film made Macaulay Culkin famous
