Summary
- The fake movie 'Angels with Filthy Souls' was made in one day for the film.
- Kevin's fake girlfriend was director's son in a wig.
- Marv's bare feet scenes used rubber props due to cold.

As Home Alone marks its 35th anniversary, surprising details about the Christmas classic are coming to light, revealing numerous filming tricks and plot inaccuracies that have long gone unnoticed by fans. The film's enduring popularity continues to captivate audiences year after year.
Among the revelations is that the gangster movie 'Angels with Filthy Souls,' featured prominently to scare off intruders, was entirely fabricated for the film in a single day. Director Christopher Columbus used vintage lighting techniques to give it an authentic period look, fooling many, including Seth Rogen, who believed it was a real old movie.
Further behind-the-scenes secrets include the identity of Buzz's girlfriend, whose unflattering photo was actually the director's son wearing a wig to avoid cruelty. Marv's barefoot scenes in the snow were also achieved with rubber props, as it was too cold for the actor. Additionally, an accidental plot hole suggests Santa isn't real, as leftover cookies weren't eaten.
