Home Alone became an instant classic when it was released in 1990, but the beloved Christmas-time comedy nearly failed to make it out of the starting gate.The family-friendly film that tells the story of a young boy who is mistakenly left alone by his family in their suburban home over the holidays, was the brainchild of the late John Hughes, whose teen-centric movies established a new genre of storytelling in the 1980s.Hughes wrote the script to see if he could create for kids the kind of movie he'd been successfully making for a slightly older audience.
