Thanksgiving

Discover where to watch the best Thanksgiving movies to celebrate the giving season.

But if you’re not quite ready to start your cinematic Christmas binge, you still have a lot of movies on your plate. Whether you’re looking to laugh to the likes of Planes, Trains and Automobiles or cuddle up to a rom-com like You’ve Got Mail, the options are plentiful.

Keep scrolling for the best Thanksgiving movies and where to stream them.
