Thanksgiving turkeys are being prepped and company is arriving soon, and keeping everyone entertained can be a tough thing to pull off for holiday hosts and hostesses. Movies always bring people together, and one website compiled a great list of over 30 movies that some of you might have forgotten about or never seen that tie into Turkey Day in one way or another.

Thanksgiving Day will have all the familiar sights, sounds, and smells of years past.

Football, board games, movies, music, and bonfires are all ways people share time with one another during the holidays. In our home, we started watching holiday movies when November arrived, and we won't stop until Christmas has passed. Like many families, we have a few film favorites that help make the holidays that much better, and The Hollywood Reporter put together a list of the 36 Best Thanksgiving Movies to help people out when entertaining guests.

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and Plains, Trains, and Automobiles are two of my family's favorites to watch in the days leading up to Thanksgiving. Rocky, Scent of A Woman, Sweet November, The Weather Man, and You've Got Mail are a couple of movies that made their list that you might want to hit play on when trying to keep family and friends entertained this week.
