PIC: The men that played Home Alone’s ‘Wet Bandits’ reunited 25 years on

The years have been kind to the Wet Bandits

Daniel Stern has posted a picture with his Home Alone partner-in-crime Joe Pesci.

The pair played Marv and Harry respectively in (arguably) the greatest Christmas film of all time.

Stern recently posted on Facebook about working with screen legend Pesci, perhaps better known for dramatic roles in Martin Scorsese classics like Raging Bull, GoodFellas and Casino.

“Harry and Marv were always intended to be a classic comic duo. John Hughes wrote it that way and Chris Columbus directed it that way… Joe and I bought into that into that idea from the very beginning,” he wrote.

Stern posted this picture with Pesci in more recent times.

“Our physical types were as different as Laurel and Hardy and we set about making our own version of those guys. You’ll notice Joe even invented his own cartoon language that he spews when he gets really frustrated.”
