Regrets? Chris Columbus has a few. “I learned a big lesson way back when we did Home Alone because when I cast that I wasn’t really looking at the kid’s family life,” the director admits in a new interview with the Coventry Telegraph . “I was casting a kid who truly had a troubled family life. I don’t think it worked out for him or his family. When I did [ Harry Potter ], I realized that you really have to cast the family as well, and look at their parents, and those Potter kids have turned out pretty well.” Still unapologized for? Columbus’s bigscreen version of Rent. [ Coventry Telegraph ]
