The mental struggle of Culkin's character, who is battling a lack of direction in his life, becomes the central story point. It turns into a complex mixture of happiness and sorrow as he travels to reunite with his cousin, whom he hasn't seen in years, and to clear his head. This internal struggle is explored in depth in Eisenberg's writing, and Culkin's ability to transform these words into his own is evidence of his developing artistry. He gives the movie its sincerity and sensitivity, which is what makes it what it is.
