Why Macaulay Culkin avoids watching the films every Christmas

Macaulay Culkin, who played the lead role of Kevin McCallister in the first two Home Alone films with aplomb, once revealed that he does not watch either during Christmas.

That’s because of the deep personal connection he has with the films. For others, it might be a movie, but for Culkin, it is a nostalgia ride. Talking to Ellen DeGeneres in 2018, he said:

“I don’t really watch them all that often…It’s background radiation at Christmastime…I’m remembering that day on set, like, how I was hiding my Pepsi behind the couch. I can’t watch it the same way other people can.”

Culkin was last seen in The Righteous Gemstones and heard in Entergalactic and The Paloni Show! Halloween Special!
