Family screening of the Christmas comedy classic Home Alone, directed by Chris Columbus and starring Macaulay Culkin, with no adverts or trailers.
Home Alone is coming to Storyhouse Cinema on Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 December, with both screenings starting at 10:30am. It's a Christmas comedy classic that's easy to pitch: eight-year-old Kevin is accidentally left behind when his family flies to New York for the holidays, and he has to defend his home from two bumbling burglars. The whole thing runs about 103 minutes, so you're in and out in under two hours.
Chris Columbus directed it, and the cast is a proper ensemble. Macaulay Culkin leads as Kevin, with Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern as the burglars, and John Heard, Catherine O'Hara and John Candy rounding out the family. It's the kind of film that works as a family outing, and these are family screenings, so it's one of those things you can take the kids to without worrying about the timing.

One detail that's worth noting: there are no adverts or trailers before the film, so it starts when it starts. If you're planning to be there for the 10:30am start, you can head straight into the movie. Tickets are £3.60 for members and £4 for non-members, and with two dates to choose from, you can pick whichever morning fits your weekend best.
