Director Chris Columbus reflects on Donald Trump's cameo in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, describing it as a 'curse'. He contrasts Trump's claim that he was begged for the role with his own assertion that the cameo was traded for access to the Plaza Hotel. Columbus notes the cameo initially received great laughs during screenings, but his attitude about it has changed over the years. This ongoing debate over the cameo's origin points to the complexities of Hollywood celebrity appearances.
It's become this curse. It's become this thing that I wish it was not there.
I'm not lying. He said I begged him to be in the movie, but there's no world I would ever beg a non-actor to be in a movie.
