Home Alone 1 And 2: 20 Easter Eggs, References & In-Jokes
12. The Frenchman In Home Alone 2 Is A Little Creepy When Translated
Another comically contrived set of accidents separate Kevin from his family in Home Alone 2, where he somehow gets on a plane to New York instead of Miami. He ends up sitting next to a Frenchman on the plane, whose babbling makes Kevin put on his headphones and miss the announcement that hes on a flight to New York. French speakers will realise this passenger is kind of creepy; he starts by telling Kevin hes on his first trip to America and he asks if his parents know a good restaurant he could try. When Kevin doesnt answer he gets more intense, asking why he doesnt reply, getting defensive about not being able to speak English and angry that Kevin appears to be ignoring him. Bet Kevins glad he missed his trip to France in the first movie after all.
