Do you still remember the American Christmas drama blockbuster "Home Alone" that we watched back then?

The little protagonist Kevin in the play and the two thieves fight wits and courage, which is simply fun. Now, 33 years have passed, and the thief has become a "** supporting role", and other supporting roles have also been promoted to the top class. Even passer-by A was a **. Kevin, who was the most shining back then, quietly became a passerby, which is really embarrassing.

In the entertainment industry, there is such a ** rule: as long as the family members are insiders, once the child enters the circle, it will be very tragic. Kevin from Home Alone is one such tragic example. Kevin's original name is Macaulay Culkin, born in Manhattan, New York, where the United States is prosperous, his parents are both actors, and his education is also to become an actor. At the age of 4, McCauley began to learn acting in preparation for joining the crew.

Perhaps inheriting the genes of his parents, McCaulley not only does not reject the path arranged by his parents, but likes it very much. Enthusiasm and unique talent have made this little boy imagine acting many times in his heart. At the age of 8, McCauley got his wish on the big screen, and at the age of 9, his unique acting skills were appreciated by the director of "Home Alone", so this movie, which can create a box office miracle in the future, naturally fell on his head. Playing the leading role for the first time, Macaulay has no psychological burden at all, he releases his childlike nature in the play, and plays a clever and cute child to the fullest. A smart and brave child, two stupid and powerful thieves, countless jokes continue to compete and clash, the laughter is so dense that people can't take their eyes off, in the screen, McCawley's childish and handsome little face has been loved by countless people. can act, and his appearance is still high, such a child star is bound to become the target of various directors. McCawley, who is only 10 years old, has already achieved a peak that others can't reach in a lifetime.

In 1990, as soon as "Home Alone" was released, it earned 28.5 billion, as the starring wheat cowley, the salary jumped to 8 million US dollars, and in that year, this sky-high salary had proved his top-notch status. If nothing else, as long as he maintains this rhythm, the money he earns next can be made before the age of 30, and let him lie down directly. However, the world is always unpredictable, and in only 5 years, this ** is the most promising child star in Hollywood, and he was forced to quit the entertainment industry.

As for the reason for quitting the circle, it is no different from the reason why he entered the circle. After Macaulay became popular, his parents saw the value in him, so the two who had been busy for most of their lives and had not succeeded in their son stopped working one after another and became Macaulay's agent. In order to make Macaulay more money when he was at his most popular, Macaulay's father didn't allow him to stop and rest, they gave Macaulay a lot of plays, and constantly pupped Macaulay, saying that he was not good enough and needed to work harder.

Macaulay, who was not deeply involved in the world, did not know his father's sinister intentions, and his parents wanted him to be their money-making machine, directly closing his contact with the outside world. Of course, the insatiable parents don't know how to let an artist shine for a long time, and their eyes have become an obstacle to Macaulay's smooth progress in the star chart. In just one year, many directors are quite hesitant to invite Macaulay to play, because his parents always sit on the ground and raise prices, and the scenes are often very embarrassing. In 1992, the director of "Home Alone" was ready to take advantage of the victory and prepare to shoot the second part. When he still wants to use Macaulay as the main character, Macaulay's parents threaten him.

After several mediations, filming finally started smoothly. However, the director has been very disappointed in Macaulay, although "Home Alone 2" has become popular again, but there is already a meaning of no longer cooperating. Later, at the request of his parents, Macaulay made several bad movies and made a lot of money, apparently his parents didn't feel the need to cherish his feathers at all, and the underage Macaulay couldn't make decisions for himself, so he could only keep filling his parents' appetite. The funny thing is that he earned the money that his parents could only earn in several lifetimes, but his parents dismantled each other and prepared for divorce due to "uneven distribution of spoils". Later, the parents also asked Macaulay in court to decide who would get the more money.

15-year-old Macaulay finally understood his value over the years in this battle between his parents, he was extremely shocked and aggrieved, and at the same time made a decision, that is, not to give any of his parents money, he wants to make his own decisions.

The moment he got the huge sum, Macaulay, who was no longer required, announced his withdrawal from the circle. This is something he wanted to do a long time ago, but he couldn't do it because his parents didn't approve of it. Now, he can finally make decisions for himself. The young heart, ** knows, the life that is finally taking off, if you don't keep flying, then it will be very difficult to start again if you spread your wings in the future. After years of being mistreated and neglected by his parents, this tired and wounded little heart now just wants to ask for a beam of warmth.

In 1996, Macaulay met an actress in the circle and showed her warm love. 2 years later, the two entered the palace of marriage, and Macaulay was only 17 years old at this time. But this marriage, which came early, didn't last long, and after only two years, the relationship between the two broke down. Yes, how can people who have not been loved know that getting warm from others is never a long-term solution. After the divorce, every two years, Macaulay would find someone to fall in love with and then separate. His love is notoriously unstable. And his life has become a mess, and he tries all kinds of outrageous things that young people can do. Finally, in 2004, he was arrested for smoking illegal substances.

From instant fame to notoriety, it seems that in the blink of an eye, the overwhelming negative news smashed into Macaulay, and his psychological defense finally collapsed. For a while, he was sloppy and unkempt, and after a few years of confusion, he finally woke up from that kind of discouragement.

As the saying goes, every part of our life is not in vain. After suffering from infinite snubbing and finger-pointing, Macaulay finally decided to pick himself up in his thirties. After all, when you have nothing to lose, you will naturally go to rebirth. After being reborn, Macaulay also tried to make a comeback, but he has been stumbling for many years, and when he is on the screen, he can only play a small supporting role. He was not disappointed, did some **, opened an account to do some funny live broadcasts, and stepped on the right track of life step by step.

In 2017, Macaulay, who had learned to enjoy life and loneliness, finally met his true love. This love has changed him a lot. He is no longer confused, he is no longer entangled, he starts laughing, he will try new things, to look forward to his own little life.

Life is as he said, turning the page is not necessarily a bad thing, and it is not impossible to start over. returned to the identity of ordinary people and obtained an ordinary happiness, which is also his ideal stability. Each of us has our own quagmire, and if we can climb out, we are the warriors of life. May the sky be high and the sea wide, and all people can be safe.
