On the Christmas eve of 1991 Kelvin McCalister was forgotten backhome by his family on a trip to Paris, well critics don't agree with the storyline telling how it was abortive their effort to call the home land line to check on the 8 year old Kelvin, claiming that if Kelvin was able to reach the Pizza delivery company (Nero cheese pizzas), perhaps his Mum should have gotten him on the phone also.
A simple explanation has been giving by the directors that it was shown that a storm the previous night destroyed the phone line in front of house and also the power cable which caused the alarm clock to fail to wake them up causing to almost miss their flight.
On further explanation, the director Columbus said that it was possible that the tree branch that was affected by the storm only destroyed the main line system controlling the international calls and perhaps the local calls were still functioning that was why he was able to reach the Nero's pizza.
According
to a Reddit user Hultquist, "In the 90's phone lines were not flying in
the ionosphere as they do these days, and its correct if we assume the
storm only affect the main line controlling long distance phone calls".
Hultquist continued to say that a call from paris to US in the 90's takes series of routes ranging from underground sea cables, to overhead cables and offcourse their are possibilities of one getting a fault which could hinder international calls to their destinations“.
Believe it or not, there are somethings in that favourite comic movie (Home alone) of yours you don't know about and perharps, you haven't thaught of it... here it is:
The role for Uncle Frank, characterized as rude and pompous and cheap was originally meant for Kelsey Grammar but he left it.
Also you didn't know that the golden toothed villian role (Harry) was given to Robert De Niro but he rejected it saying its not his character.
If you would recall a scene where Kelvin (Macaulay Culkin) was hanging from a hook on the kitchen, a serious accident happend there, he was mistakenly bitten by Joe Pesci (Harry), an injury that required stiching.
The movie titled "Angels with Filthy Souls" used by Kelvin to scare the Pizza delivery sales person was not a movie, actually it was just specially made for the movie alone.
Gus Polinski who played the role of John candy broke the record among the casts for filming his whole scenes in 23hours nonstop act because he had an early morning flight to UK the next day.
Also, the photo used to portray the image of buzz girlfriend was not really a girl, the director claimed that he doesn't want a girl to be know as ugly all her life thus his son dressed up and was photoshoped.
Catherine O'Hara played the role of Mrs. McCallister who went a great lenght in finding her son backhome.
Cathering appeared in an interview last week with Primereports. The 60 year old was spotted at the 25th anniversary of the movie in LA.
During the interview, Cathering specified that she had met with Macaulay last month at Martin Mull's art opening. According to her, it was a heartwarming moment for the both "when i saw him comming he was like mummy! cheerfully i called him baby! is this you? it was really emotional. my husband who loved the saga was like hey! you two get together am taking a picture."
The picture is hung on my bedroom i wish you could see it its really beautifull she said. when asked how often they see catherine exclaimed that last month was the first time since two years, his living in Paris and we are in touch. His doing well and looked lovely i was really happy to see him.
