Home Alone is a very funny 1990 American film. It tells us a story about a boy who is accidentally left alone at home.
One night before Christmas, the McAlister family meet at their house. They are planning to fly to Paris for the holiday and getting ready. Eight-year-old Kevin is the youngest child and is fighting with his brothers, sisters and cousins. When he goes to bed, he is so angry that he wishes all his family would go away. In the morning, everyone wakes up very late. They are all in a hurry to get to the airport, so they forget Kevin and he is left alone at home by accident.
Although Kevin is alone, he is very happy first. His terrible family have gone—his wish comes true. He watches TV, eats lots of fast food and plays games. He has a good time. But later on, he goes out and hears two bad men called Harry and Marv planning to steal(偷窃)from his house. He goes home and plans some very funny ways to catch Harry and Marv. Many things in the houses get broken as Kevin tries to stop them. Finally, the police come and catch the two men.
