27 Aug
Summary
- Tim Curry lied to Donald Trump and Ivana Trump on set.
- Curry played the concierge at the Plaza Hotel in Home Alone 2.
- Trump sought to introduce his then-girlfriend Marla Maples.

The late actor Tim Curry recounted a memorable fib he told to Donald and Ivana Trump during the filming of 'Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.' Curry, who portrayed the suspicious hotel concierge Mr. Hector, shared this anecdote in an interview before his recent passing at 80.
Curry had to compliment Ivana Trump's interior design choices at the Plaza Hotel, despite disliking them. At the time, Donald Trump was preoccupied with introducing his then-girlfriend, Marla Maples, to director Chris Columbus, believing her to be a talented actress.
Trump himself made a cameo in the film. Director Chris Columbus later expressed regret over Trump's appearance, though he acknowledged their need to film at The Plaza Hotel. Curry's story highlights a unique behind-the-scenes moment from the beloved 1992 film.
