40 Best Thanksgiving Movies to Watch With Your Family on Turkey Day

"After the table has been cleared and the leftover turkey has been put away, there's only one thing to do on November 25: Watch one of the best Thanksgiving movies of all time. It may seem tempting to plan a more adventurous post-pie Thanksgiving activity, but we promise that you'll be thankful for an excuse to slip into your comfiest sweatpants and curl up on the couch with your family on Turkey Day. No matter what you're in the mood for, we have the perfect pick to add to your after-dinner Thanksgiving traditions with this list of festive films. Regardless of what you choose, all of these fan-favorite Thanksgiving movies have a few things in common: Iconic dinner scenes, relatable family feuds, and overarching themes of gratitude. Who knows, one might even inspire this year's Thanksgiving Instagram caption, or contain a classic Thanksgiving quote!" - thepioneerwoman.com
List creator note: I recommend one of my personal Thanksgiving faves "Pieces of April" - check it out!
