The Adventure in “Home Sweet Home Alone”
Allan and Aiden
Canada, Age 9
Shining Dream of Childhood AWARD

At just four years old, identical twins Allan and Aiden got an extraordinary surprise when they were selected by 20th Century Studios to play the principal role of Ollie McKenzie in the famous movie Home Sweet Home Alone.

The year was 2020, and the world was grappling with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the uncertainty, the boys were thrilled to embark on this new adventure. Filming began with excitement and energy, but soon had to be paused for half a year due to the pandemic.
During the break, Allan and Aiden spent their days at home, dreaming about the movie and practicing their lines. Their living room turned into a mini movie set, where the boys would reenact scenes and keep their spirits high.
When filming resumed, the twins were more than ready. They brought joy and laughter to the set, making friends with the cast and crew. The experience was not just about acting; it was about learning, growing, and having fun. The boys were fascinated by the cameras, the lights, and the magic of moviemaking.

Finally, in 2021, Home Sweet Home Alone was released on Disney+. The twins watched the premiere with their family, their eyes wide with wonder as they saw themselves on the screen. It was a moment of pride and joy, a memory that would be cherished forever.

For Allan and Aiden, this was more than just their first acting gig. It was a unique and prestigious experience that taught them about resilience, creativity, and the power of dreams. As they grew older, they would always look back on this time with fondness, remembering the fun, the unique chapter in their lives.
这篇文章如同一封记录童年高光时刻的信笺,以Allan和Aiden的电影冒险为主线,讲述了在疫情中萌芽并绽放的梦想故事,读来既温暖又励志。四岁双胞胎获选电影主角的经历充满戏剧性,而2020年的疫情则为这段旅程增添了特殊注脚——拍摄暂停的半年里,孩子们没有消沉,反而将生活空间转化为追梦的舞台,用排练与想象维系着热爱,这份孩童的坚持令人动容。
