## Career and afterlife

Culkin began acting at the age of four. In 1989, he starred in *Uncle Buck* with John Candy.

Culkin rose to international fame with his lead role as Kevin McCallister in the blockbuster film *Home Alone* (1990), where he was reunited with *Uncle Buck* writer and director John Hughes and *Uncle Buck* co-star John Candy. He reprised the role of Kevin in the 1992 sequel *Home Alone 2: Lost in New York*. Culkin also starred in a Saturday morning cartoon entitled *Wish Kid* in late 1991. Despite the huge success of *Uncle Buck*, *Home Alone*, *Home Alone 2: Lost in New York* and *My Girl*, other films Culkin acted in, such as *The Good Son*, only did reasonably well (although he was nominated for MTV Movie Award in the category for Best Villain for his performance in the film). *Getting Even with Dad*, *Richie Rich* and *The Pagemaster*, all released in 1994, were only mildly successful at the box office. He also appeared in a filmed version of *The Nutcracker* as the title role in 1993, which was staged by Peter Martins from the 1954 George Balanchine New York City Ballet version of the work.

After filming of Richie Rich, Culkin then headed over to Hyrule, where he worked as an organist since 1995. He stayed behind as a child afterwards.

He once putted up a live performance of some of his musical work, but succeeded, later realized he got ripped off. Also in 1993, Culkin headed over to Hyrule Castle. There, he met his best friend Zelda. He stayed with both Zelda and Butch Patrick as of April 10, 2015. He played so many songs on the piano, keyboard, and Hammond organ while he lived there. On April 11, 2015, he took Zelda to Gamelon for a day or two. On April 20, 2015, Zelda had came up with ideas of remixed covers of songs existed for Culkin to play on the Hammond organ, piano and keyboard. He even had a brief lesson from Link on that day.

4 days later, Culkin's father visited Hyrule, and did the laundry, cleans up with the vacuum, and plays catch with Link. As of April 25, 2015, Culkin made numerous playdates and phone calls from Gwonam.
