Sometimes you've just gotta cross something off the bucket list! This was actually our second visit up to the locations from Home Alone, starring Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, Catherine O'Hara, and John Heard. We had not done it since starting the KZfaq channel, so it was great to get back up there. This time we added a couple more spots. We visited the usual locations, we got into the gym where the sets were built and broke down exactly where everything was, and attended a Home Alone screening event in the church. This movie is a childhood favorite for many and many videos have been done on the locations, so I hope enjoy our take!

Ever since I was a kid I was obsessed with finding movie locations. There is a surreal feeling of seeing something you know so well, in person, knowing that that iconic moment was there and you are in it.

For me, finding a movie location spot... It's bc in the movie you feel like your are actually there, but you know it's not real real.. Until you find the place. Then you are actually there where it all happened! You feel like you're a part of it.. like it was real

Also, thank you for being so soft-spoken and detailed with the address. I have not seen anyone more detailed than you. I encourage you to continue this journey with your wife. I hope you visit my favorite movie location of "The Breakfast Club" high school in a similar kind of location."

The locations matter to us because they allow us to connect with a feeling or experience. Great movies do more than entertain us. They can transform or change us by seeing things from a new perspective or inspire us or give us hope. To think.. .this is WHERE it happened and I am standing in that spot right now! I'm a big fan of "The Shawshank Redemption" and the guide took us to the very spot where Andy tells Red that you either "get busy living or get busy dying”. I think about that quote all the time.. this is WHERE it happened. it's like hallowed ground. And it's not too different than connecting with our history and our past by visiting historic sites. That's my 2 cents. Thank you for all you do in finding these locations.

You killed it on this one Ryan, well done. I especially loved the shots inside the school, that’s what really sets your video apart from others that have done this movie. And I 100% agree with many of the points you made about why people like you and I do filming locations. I know some people don’t understand it, but for those of us who do, it all makes perfect sense. For me personally, I also find it connects me to the movie in a much different way than simply watching it over and over or memorizing lines. To walk and stand in the exact spots that these movies were filmed really adds an entirely new layer for me personally. I’m sure you agree.

Yes, New Trier High School for the film crew and production offices. It's not surprising because this school was one of the schools John Hughes used in his famous 80s teen films. And again, Hughes proudly filmed repeatedly in towns outside of Chicago, as well as in Chicago. A great video and project - a treat for Home Alone and John Hughes fans! Thank you!

I only even thought of looking this up because we're currently watching HA with my 3yo as I speak. I wanted to see what became of the house, but on Google maps you're not even allowed to go down the street and the visible houses are blurred. I knew a video like this would exist. The owners remind me of the guy that bought Paul McCartney's childhood home in Liverpool (it is and will always be a little terraced house that goes straight onto the street) and then tells people off for standing on the grass, etc.

I actually like the new look of the home where they removed the looped driveway and did a metal picked fence because this offers the home better security which is ironic considering that "Home Alone" was a robing houses.

@goingtothemovies can you cover the house from "Stepmom"? The house that belonged to Susan Sarandon was 👍

HA! This house is 5 mins from where I live in Winnetka...anytime of year and every single weekend when I (unfortunately) drive by it just...people, people, people, and...more people and in fact its gotten so out of hand that our local PD sits outside the house and watches
