WATCH: There’s an amazing link between Home Alone and Friends we never spotted before

JOE

Mind. Blown.

Although Home Alone is a film that’s been out for TWENTY-SIX YEARS, we’re still learning things about it.

Home Alone was released in 1990 and Friends finished up in 1994, but they’re still brilliant pieces of essential viewing we’ll always sit down to watch.

According to Refinery29, it seems the two are actually closely linked, but only the most eagle-eyed of fans will have spotted this small connection.

Fans of Friends will remember that Chandler and Monica move house in the final season, finally leaving Monica’s iconic apartment for the leafy suburbs to raise a family.

Well, the house they moved to was actually the same house Kevin McCallister lived in in Home Alone. Reportedly, the creators of Friends used footage from the film to recreate the scenes of outside Monica and Chandler’s house.
