Thanksgiving movies are not as prevalent as Christmas movies because Thanksgiving often gets overlooked. But we're not going to overlook it tonight! In this episode, we're talking about the movies we like to watch around Thanksgiving or movies that have something to do with Thanksgiving. 

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS WEEK’S SHOW:

  • Planes, Trains, and Automobiles starring Steve Martin and John Candy
  • We randomly pick a Harry Potter movie for Thanksgiving. But if you've never done it, watch Harry Potter 1 because there's a good Christmas scene in it. And they're all still little so it feels more nostalgic.
  • Other movies you can watch for Thanksgiving: The Lord of the Rings series, The Holiday, When Harry Met Sally, Dutch, Sweet Home Alabama
  • The Last Waltz takes place on Thanksgiving but it doesn't necessarily have to do anything with Thanksgiving. It’s easy music directed by Martin Scorsese.
