Home Alone

About this event

Celebrate the holiday season with Home Alone , the beloved family comedy that has become a Christmas classic. Join us at Gorton Center for a special screening filled with holiday fun, unforgettable characters, and plenty of laughs.

When eight-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) accidentally gets left behind while his family travels to Paris for Christmas, he suddenly has the house to himself. At first, Kevin enjoys his unexpected freedom. He eats what he wants, watches movies, and makes his own rules. However, his holiday adventure takes a turn when two burglars target his home.

Determined to protect the house, Kevin creates a series of clever and hilarious booby traps. What follows is a comedy packed with memorable moments, slapstick humor, and plenty of holiday heart.

Directed by Chris Columbus and written by John Hughes, Home Alone also stars Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, Catherine O’Hara, and John Heard. Since its release in 1990, the film has become a holiday favorite for generations.

Bring the family and experience Home Alone on the big screen at Gorton Center. Whether you know every trap by heart or you’re introducing a new generation to Kevin McCallister, this festive screening is a perfect way to celebrate the season together.
