America Is Kevin's Country - Home Alone (Merry Christmas!!!) - Cinphomaniac

Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday from Cinphomaniac! To celebrate, Marcus and Dana talk the 1990 all time classic starring MaCaulay Culkin, directed by Chris Columbus and written by John Hughes. Not content to stick to the usual listicle theories or casual viewing reactions, we unmask the film for what it really has to say about the contradictions held within the American Christmas and the dark heart behind our blue eyed and blonde haired alleged innocent.

Also, they discuss the abomination that is 2021's Home Sweet Home Alone. Good riddance!
