So, the house it was filmed in and suburb they were supposed to be from is “Winnetka” which is a northern suburb and where a lot of exceptionally rich people live. Houses in that area go for millions. Though, it’s possible they were a house broke family. The mom was also supposed to be a fashion designer and it was the uncle who paid for the Paris trip.
Edit: house is currently pending sale for over 5mil, and pictures show there’s a full basketball court and home movie theatre inside. Wow
Watched Home Alone tonight trying to figure it out. 1990. Were they rich?
Holy shit yes, I don’t care about relative anything, have you seen that house? That’s rich.
Plane tickets from New York (?) to Paris in 1990 at Christmas time for an entire family would have been expensive as hell
I thought the rich uncle paid for that. Haven’t seen it in a while, but anyway yeah, they weren’t hurting that’s for sure
It was Chicago. Nearly all of John Hughes’ movies take place in Chicago.
