Stern previously admitted he loves the enduring popularity of the 1990 film, but he prefers to appreciate it from a distance.<\/p>\n
He told People magazine: \u201cI love knowing that everybody loves it but, like, actual people come at me and say, \u2018We love it.\u2019 It\u2019s a little overwhelming sometimes.\u201d<\/p>\n
He also insisted he had no plans to take part in any 35th anniversary celebrations for Home Alone, adding: \u201cI don\u2019t leave my farm. It\u2019s no offence to the movie. I\u2019m just … a phone call, Zoom call, I\u2019m in. but … I\u2019m a bit of a homebody.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cI did know that it was a gem of a movie. John Hughes wrote the funniest script I\u2019ve ever read. I mean, I was rolling on the floor, laughing reading it. It was so funny, but it was also full of heart and you know \u2013 the kid and the neighbour saves him and he and the mother reunite …<\/p>\n
\u201cI mean it was so emotional. It was so funny, it was so true and so I did know that. I was hopeful that we were making a great movie. I had no idea obviously \u2013 no one could \u2013 of the longevity of its life.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pesci, Macaulay Culkin and Stern in \u201cHome Alone 2″.
