Not so funny now, huh?
On filming, Macaulay was frequently frightened by one of the two comic bandits, Joe Pesci. Joe had just finished filming Goodfellas, where he played a cunning mobster who was always ready to kill. Whoa.
A not so shabby payday
Everybody recalls Home Alone as a popular film from the past. However, how truly fantastic was it? Over $500 million was made worldwide, and the sequels are almost at that amount as well. An $8 million offer was made to Macaulay for his next assignment.
