Thanks to this role, this 8-year-old American boy received a prestigious Golden Globe nomination and a series of other awards that many previous actors were jealous of.
In Home Alone Part I, the boy was only paid $100,000, but with his rapid rise, Culkin made producers spend millions of dollars if they wanted him in the movie.

Macaulay Culkin and his journey from the boy who had everything to a homeless man shunned by children
By 1995, the press reported that Macaulay Culkin’s parents were divorcing.
Everything would not be worth mentioning if it did not flare up into a dispute over the huge assets built by the family’s noble son.
Because of the lawsuits and scandals surrounding his family, Culkin was pushed into deadlocks and rebellions in his teenage life.
The most memorable event was when he was 15 years old.
While staying with his father, because he was forced to clean his own room, Culkin picked up the phone and called the police to arrest his father.
At the same time, the child star of Home Alone rushed into quick love affairs, had many one-night stands, and even entered into debauchery throughout the day.
From having everything to personally giving it all away
Macaulay Culkin and Rachel Miner were passionate when they were young
At the age of 17, he got married to his wife, actress Rachel Miner.
But disagreements in life views ended this two-year marriage. Rachel wants to devote herself entirely to her family, while Culkin wants to continue his career while there is still some light left.
By 2002, he and Mila Kunis were dating. During this time, people were able to see the radiant smile on Culkin’s lips when he stood shoulder to shoulder with Mila Kunis.
But later, instead of rebuilding his life, instead of making efforts for new roles, Macaulay Culkin slipped into drug addiction.
Mila Kunis was in love with the “Home Alone” actor at an event
The end of his career was written in 2004 after being detained by the police while carrying 17.3g of marijuana, 16.5 mg of Alprazolam (a sedative that causes central nervous system depression) and 32mg of marijuana. Clonazepam (a potentially addictive sedative) in the US.
Now he faces a suspended sentence and a $4,000 fine, as well as the decision to go to rehab.
A newspaper once reported that he spent nearly 6,000 USD/month on drugs and was very addicted to drugs.
Macaulay Culkin also has a record of squandering his fortune on fun, trying his hand at being a DJ, and hanging out at nightclubs in New York like a familiar face.
After nearly 8 years together, Mila Kunis and Macaulay Culkin went their separate ways.
There is a lot of information that the love story broke down because Mila did not like family life, but a large part also said that it was because Culkin’s side was too shabby so her lover could no longer accept it.
Once again, the star of Home Alone fell into a lonely situation.
For many years afterward, Macaulay Culkin’s money went nowhere when fans only saw him in messy, dirty clothes, with long, messy hair and beard.
Culkin once bitterly shared with the New York Daily News: “One thing that has changed is that the kids now don’t know who I am. When their parents push them towards me, they scream: Who is that?” ? Why should I care about him?
From a star at the top of Hollywood revenue, to becoming a symbol of the homeless, this is certainly the most terrible shock that Macaulay Culkin has had to face.
You can find the motivation to change, but can you find the courage to change?
Macaulay Culkin once appeared with a polite, mature appearance on the streets of Paris with his girlfriend Brenda Song
Certainly, finding the past nearly 30 years ago is impossible for Macaulay Culkin.
But having a more groomed Macaulay Culkin than before is what fans are likely hoping for. Recently, he looks a lot fatter, leaner and more cheerful.
The press also posted many pictures of the dating story between him and Brenda Song.
That was probably the spiritual medicine that gave him the motivation to find himself again.
But as for Brenda Song, she has not given any feedback about this.
Being famous too quickly, money, stimulants and beauty are the factors that have the greatest power to kill a genius.
Tom Hardy, Johnny Depp or even Macaulay Culkin, these are all names that left a beautiful mark in the hearts of the audience when they were at the peak of their careers.
Now, when their empire has faded away, when the golden past has drifted away, fans do not blame them, but they only regret the talents going down the wrong path.
