The Man of the House Goes Shopping

In this scene from the 1990 smash hit movie Home Alone, Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) goes shopping for groceries just as a grownup would do. In the DVD chapter “The Man of the House Goes Shopping” (which I think is an excellent title), Kevin picked up some milk, eggs and (in a deleted scene that can be viewed on the Home Alone Family Fun Edition DVD) fabric softener. :)

In my mind, when Kevin went shopping for groceries, he showed that he was learning to be independent, as well as showing that he could stand on his own, especially when it came to setting the traps for the Wet Bandits later on, too.
