10 Thanksgiving Movies to Watch After the Big Meal

It's hard not to get choked up while watching Michael Oher — a homeless 17-year-old — have Thanksgiving dinner for the first time with the Tuohy's. It's this moment that makes him realize how welcome he really is (and makes us realize just how thankful we are for our own family and friends).

Watching the antics Steve Martin's quirky, high-strung character must endure — just to make it home for Thanksgiving dinner with his family — will leave your sides aching.

Charlie Brown and his gang never fail to give us the warm and fuzzies, so of course you should curl up for this installment Charles Schulz's holiday TV specials.

The final stop of this crazy, hilarious adventure is Dutch Dooley's girlfriend's Thanksgiving dinner — but he can only make it after agreeing to pick up her son from his prep school, who is a littler, err, difficult.

Combining two old neighbors (who haven't gotten along ever since they were children) with a mutual love interest makes for one interesting storyline — and one funny Thanksgiving scene.

Try not to fall in love with the adorable heroine of this John Hughes film, who assists a homeless man in conning people for food and shelter (you'll be extra thankful for that big Thanksgiving meal after watching).

For the little ones of your group, there's nothing like a Winnie the Pooh tale to celebrate the holiday.

Watch what happens when you bring together long-lost family members for a Thanksgiving meal. Spoiler alert: Lots of laughs will ensue.

Claudia Larson's Thanksgiving gets off to a bad start — she gets fired from her job, and her daughter has informed her she'll be spending the holiday with her boyfriend instead. But by the end of the film, our intrepid protagonist gains a new outlook on things.
