@Aritul i was watching some behind the scenes stuff, and chris columbus, who directed the film, said the old man wasn't in the original script, but added later to give it more emotion. the pigeon lady in home alone 2, with a very similar scene, is also great. the symmetry used in the second is why i think it works so well
The most beautiful, "at peace", time of my ENTIRE life. God Bless the 'audio men'. 'May the force be with you'...... alllllllllll my love, from texas!!!!
@Jayke1981 thats sad to hear, i dident know he passed away until I saw your comment, but he was 87 years old and i always thought he would die soon. R.I.P John Candy,
Aside from the scenes with all the booby traps, this is probably my favorite part of the movie. Thanks for going to all the trouble to film and post this!
Also, has that actor playing the old man ever played Grigori Rasputin in a movie? swear he looks just like him.
@darshanmiller. newsflash darsh: just because its christmas day doesn't mean a video posted on youtube can't suck. i stand by my original comment. the sound and picture are terrible and the last half of the scene got cut out. what part of that do you disagree with?
@darshanmiller . admit it darsh, you will feel better. bad sound and video, and the scene is cut short. jameslove posted a crappy video. it's ok to say you were wrong.
@SparksDrinker shut the hell up! i have watched this vid soooo many times so i can here the AUDIO! The singing was great! now what the hell out of that can you disagree with!
@cometear . why would you watch this video "soooo many times"? home alone is a great movie and this is one of the best scenes, but this clip does not do it justice because it is poor quality and the scene is cut short.
this is my church i've gone to my whole life- it is truly as magical as in this movie. My family also goes every year to christmas eve midnight mass and the choir sings christmas hyms an hour before the actual service for people to come and listen. The church they show on the outside is different from the church they show the interior of. The church still looks practically the same too!
what song is played at the part where he hugs his granddaughter at the end of the movie??? It still makes me cry non stop. Combat Marine here of two wars, and lost both hips there. Still, only film, besides that "Lester the long eared Donkey" that brings tears.. I'm man enough to admit what it does, but I love them both!!!
I too am very much alone. I work, I collect aluminum cans by the side walk, and I even salt the roads.
People thought I was a wacko. They were afraid of me.
But when people get to know me, they think I am a very nice person. I just isolated mysel;f over the years because I suffered some tragedy. I don't say much, but I am really nice.
@havingfun1968 I understand oh too well about isolation. I have done that over the years cause I thought no one could ever comprehend what I have endured in combat... I just have to understand that those who protest and speak out against the things I feel made a difference of, cause I was there, and they weren't, are just beyond ignorant of what they say. God Bless you too my friend....
Why are they so afraid to portray churches, temples, or synagogues in modern media? Christians and other religious are as much a fabric of society as anyone else.
The 1980s and 1990s were great times because we weren't afraid of political correctness, and we didn't let it prevent us from telling great stories with great morals and moving images and scenes, like this. This scene evokes great peace, warmth, and reverence (to me at least). Thank you for posting this. :-)
The interior was shot at Grace Episcopal Church in Oak Park, IL. I went there for a service when I was visiting friends last month, and sat right where Kevin and the old man were!
The begining part of this with the tune "Somwhere In My Memory"...classic..still brings about tears watching Kevin looking at that family, like "I wish I had made that wish!" Like Birdie put it: Iconic!
Marley's awesome. Great actor. Apparently (in the commentary on the dvd they say) he wasn't in the original script. Man can't imagine the film without him.
Hey yeah sure it's called "Oh Holy Night", being played through the 94th second. Type it into iTunes and download it or download it from Limewire maybe?
@jameslove1 Oh thank you so much I looked for the name of tghis song all the morning and afternoon. One week ago I saw Homer singing this song in the church when he was younger^^. Homer Simpson by the Simpsons on TV.
@CrippledPotato They don't list the choir in the credits, which is a shame, but at the very end of the film they give thanks to Trinity High School Choir and Ascension Children's Choir.
