Other than Planes, Trains and Automobiles - are there any other 'great' Thanksgiving (themed) movies?

Was the word 'great' lost on you?

I recall seeing this movie and thought it sucked. This confirms my suspicions:

Wifey and I watch Christmas Vacation each Thanksgiving. It's a tradition. Yes, I am aware it's not a "thanksgiving" movie, but hell, what is, and there is a Turkey Dinner scene. So there.

Scent of a Woman is another Thanksgiving movie. Never watched the whole thing.

I liked Dutch, but I'll have to go with the Steve Martin/John Candy classic...

Son in Law. Funny movie starring Pauly Shore. Takes place over Thanksgiving weekend as Paulie's character goes "home" with a classmate. :D

Another Chicago classic, Thanksgiving Day. I never have watched it though.

No, it was Thanksgiving...I remember having to drive my grandma back to her house really late one Thanksgiving night because she insisted on staying to watch the whole movie...

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I love that movie...it's the only Pauly Shore movie I can stand. Her family is hilarious....the movie showcases all the family dysfunction and Pauly brings them together at the end and they're all reminded of how much they have to be thankful for.

AND it's got Tiffani Amber Thiessen POST boob job. She's not in high school anymore!
:lol: :lol:
