Home Alone

Eight-year-old Kevin McCallister is left home alone after his family accidentally forgets him when they leave for a Christmas vacation. At first, Kevin revels in the freedom of being on his own, enjoying the house to himself and indulging in activities he usually wouldn’t be allowed to do. However, his peaceful holiday is quickly disrupted when two dim-witted burglars, Harry and Marv, plot to rob his house. Realizing that his home is in danger, Kevin takes charge of the situation.

Determined to protect his territory, Kevin uses his ingenuity to set up a series of creative and hilarious booby traps throughout the house. From nail-covered floors to swinging paint cans, Kevin’s traps are designed to stop the burglars in their tracks. As Harry and Marv try to break in, they find themselves outsmarted at every turn, suffering a series of painful (and often comical) mishaps.

Meanwhile, Kevin’s mother, Kate, is frantically trying to get back to him. Struggling with flight delays and chaotic travel, she races against the clock to return home before Christmas Day. While Kate makes her way back, Kevin stands firm in his defense, determined to keep his house safe and prove he can handle the situation on his own.

"Home Alone" is a heartwarming and laugh-out-loud holiday comedy that showcases the resourcefulness and bravery of one young boy as he faces down a pair of hapless criminals. Packed with humor, inventive traps, and a touching message about family and the holiday spirit, the film has become a beloved classic for audiences of all ages.
