Macaulay Culkin

Macaulay Culkin is an actor best known for his childhood role as Kevin McCallister in the *Home Alone* films. He is newsworthy due to his recent involvement in a pop culture debate regarding whether the film *Die Hard* qualifies as a Christmas movie. Culkin publicly stated that he does not consider *Die Hard* a Christmas film, a view that initially met with disapproval from a live audience. However, a recent survey in the UK revealed that the British public largely agrees with Culkin's assessment, voting *Die Hard* as not a Christmas movie while simultaneously naming *Home Alone* as their favorite festive film. This positions Culkin at the center of a lighthearted but ongoing cultural discussion about holiday movie classifications.
