Opposite Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Geena Davis, and more stars, O’Hara was the red-headed, bright lipstick-sporting, lip-synching, manically-dancing Delia Deetz in Tim Burton’s Halloween classic, as well as its 2024 follow-up, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. I, for one, can’t stop watching that dinner party scene.
Home Alone (1990)
Christmas will never be the same again–every year from now on, as I rewatch Chris Columbus’s seasonal staple, 1992’s Home Alone 2: Lost in New York and, of course, Henry Selick’s The Nightmare Before Christmas from 1993, I’ll be sobbing at O’Hara’s brilliance. She’s the heart and soul of this cosy festive trifecta.
