Boy soprano aged Elijah Wood is in this Homicide episode set at a prep school! He is definitely, obviously the murderer

But that’s how lobster is served…wait is my family The Good Son…

it's not unusual New Engalnder stuff, but we are a bunch of stone-cold weirdos so yeah i can see it being really unsettling to The Outsiders

Everyone gets A Whole Bug

That's what I tried to explain. It's New England, it's a special occasion, they live on the coast! It's 1993! They can probably just walk down to their local lobsterman and pick up live lobster for five bucks a pop.

yeah, like, our lobster hookup was a guy with a shack off a rotary for selling the stuff he and his pals fished themselves, it's a way different Lobster Economy out here and especially back then

our special occasion was New Year's Lobsters

Ours was when we went to visit the family up in New Hampshire. I never got down with it, personally, as the whole "giant bug that my Aunt boiled alive a few minutes ago" was not an appealing meal to me.

Wood and Culkin are so good in this! I don't know if I've seen an adult movie so fully & successfully dependent on the performance of a 12- and a 13-year-old

I watched this movie as a kid. Maybe I need to revisit it!

I remember *almost* nothing about that movie but I do remember them acting their tiny hearts out.

I'm enjoying it! Had no idea it was written by Ian McEwan

damnslippy.slippy.me•32 days ago

I definitely did not know who that was at the time I was watching that movie. Neat!

I'll never forget a classmate in Primary school telling me that they made one sequel to Home Alone (my favourite film) where Kevin McCallister is evil and another one where he's killed by bees. I was very disturbed by this knowledge. Didn't want to see Home Alone 3 and 4, 2 was already a bit strong.
