Carlotta in Angels with Even Filthier Souls
Carlotta was a character from the film Angels with Even Filthier Souls.
History
Kevin McCallister watches Angels with Even Filthier Souls in his hotel room. The gangsters moll Carlotta, wearing a 1930's satin evening gown and fur stole and a gardenias flower on her head, is accused by Johnny of infidelity as he thinks that she was smooching with his brother. She denies it and Johnny names the people she is accused of smooching. She denies it again. Johnny then says he believes her but his Tommy Gun doesn't. She proceeds to plead for her life. He proceeds to order her out of the room before he counts up to 3. Before Johnny counts to 3, he riddles Carlotta with bullets. Johnny stops to say "Merry Christmas, you filthy animal", then fires a couple more shots before adding "And a Happy New Year" before firing once more.
During the scenes in Home Alone 2 where the hotel employees are in the room, Carlotta is not heard on screen as Kevin forwards the video tape to Johnny's lines to trick the hotel employees.
