Christmas classic Home Alone to be screened at Bristol's Showcase Cinema for one day only

A cinema in Bristol is screening one of the most popular Christmas films of all time later this month.

For one day only next Sunday (October 25) Showcase Cinema in Avonmeads will be screening Home Alone, giving people the chance to get in the festive spirit early.

Home Alone first hit the big screen in 1990 and stars a young Macaulay Culkin in the lead role as 8-year-old Kevin MacCallister who is mistakenly left at home alone while his family head out of town on holiday.

Kevin has to protect the family home from con men, played by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern, who plan on robbing the MacCallister's house.

Mark Barlow, General Manager of Showcase Cinemas UK, said: "This year has been tough on everyone and, with Christmas looking to be very different for 2020, we wanted to invite film fans to start the season earlier than ever before and join us for some much needed festive fun.

"We’re thrilled to be able to show Home Alone as every year it has consistently tops the polls as the nation’s favourite Christmas movie.

"We couldn’t think of a better film to bring to the big screen in Bristol."

Movie-goers will also be given a free bag of chocolate to enjoy during the film, included in the ticket price.

Tickets are on sale now for this limited edition screening priced at just £5.

They can be booked on the Showcase Cinema's website.
