Charlie Fitzgibbon is only nine, but he already considers himself a bit of a celebrity as he gets stopped in the street by strangers thanks to his likeliness to a very famous face.
The youngster's mum, Leanne, is convinced her little boy looks exactly like Kevin McCallister from Home Alone.
The 32-year-old says strangers have pointed out the similarities since Charlie was young as five - but not everyone can see it.
And the family, from Crawley, West Sussex, love nothing more than watching the Christmas classic - which sees hapless Kevin is left home alone when his relatives go away for the holidays - at this time of year.
Macaulay Culkin plays the child in the hit film, which this month celebrates its 30th anniversary.
Leanne, who works a nursery nurse, said: "We get a lot of comments, especially this time of year, like 'Charlie is on the TV again'. Complete strangers say it on the street.
"He has got the sticky-out ears and blondish hair so he does look just like Kevin.
"He loves it. We love the film. It is one of his favourites actually. We often watch it this time of year."
Leanne shared photos of Charlie and Kevin on a Facebook page last week and they've since been liked by hundreds of strangers.
But it split social media - with some agreeing with Leanne and others flabbergasted by the suggestion.
One person wrote: "I really don't see it myself."
Another added: "He looks nothing like him." But one Facebook user wrote: "Yes, I see it - he does look like Kevin."
Leanne continued: "The reaction online has generally been good.
"There were nice comments on there and plenty of likes.
"It is a lovely time of year and everyone likes Home Alone. I love Christmas."
Charlie, who in the photos grins just like the cheeky Kevin, said: "I feel happy because I like Home Alone a lot.
"I’ve watched it so many times.
"It makes me feel like I’m famous."
Home Alone, released in December 1990, is a comedy film about Kevin who must defend his home from two burglars.
It has since become a franchise, with a further four films released and a sixth one said to be in production.
