Home alone – facts you do not know – level 2

Home alone – facts you do not know

24-12-2025 07:00

Home Alone tells the story of a boy who stays home alone when his family leaves for Christmas.

Two thieves try to enter his house, but the boy uses smart ideas to stop them. The movie shows funny scenes and exciting moments. People enjoy it during the holiday season.

The team used many tricks to make the movie. They built most of the house inside a school. They made snow from food to look real on camera. A grown man did many dangerous actions instead of the child actor. Some famous scenes happened by accident but stayed in the movie.

The movie became very popular after it came out. Many people watch it every Christmas and remember the jokes, scenes, and music.

Difficult words: thief (a person who steals things), scene (a short part of a movie), exciting (when something makes you feel happy and nervous).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

How did the production team create the house set and simulate snow for the film?
