Home Alone (1990)
Another all-time favorite film to watch on Christmas Eve. While on vacation in France, Kevin’s family leaves him behind, aged 8. At first, he enjoys being in charge, but when burglars break into his house, he fights back.
Favorite Quote: “This is Christmas. The season of perpetual hope. I don’t care that I have to get out on your runway and hitchhike, it costs me everything I own, I have to sell my soul to the devil himself. I am going to get home to my son.” These are the words of a mother who had “accidentally” forgotten her child at home.
