To many, Thanksgiving is above all a time to celebrate having food by eating as much of it as possible. Secondarily, it's also a time to gather with friends and family and just have fun. And turkey. Lots of turkey.
In honor of Thanksgiving (my personal favorite holiday), here's a list of 30 films about friendship to cozy up to with twenty of your closest buds, one for each day in November!
1) Steel Magnolias-This one is definitely a tear-jerker, only to be watched with your best girls and a box of tissues!
2) Now and Then
3) Stand By Me-The ultimate "guy friend" movie, this one is probably the only acceptable film for guys to watch together and actually show emotion.
4) The Goonies
5) Grumpy Old Men-A funny flick for the whole family!
6) Circle of Friends
7) Empire Records
8) Thelma and Louise
9) The Fox and the Hound-Kid-friendly!
10) Superbad
11) Pirates of the Carribean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
12) The Lord of the Rings trilogy
13) Up-Also kid-friendly, but have the tissues handy!
14) Toy Story trilogy (FYI, Toy Story 3 is now available on the Kids New Release wall!)-Great pick for a kids' sleepover!
15) Harry Potter series
16) Madagascar-Best for young children
17) When Harry Met Sally...
18) Casablanca
19) The Breakfast Club-Wonderful film, but with quite a bit of language-might want to save this for the over-15 set.
20) Mean Girls
21) Forrest Gump
22) Monsters, Inc.-Funny for all ages!
23) The Jungle Book
24) Shrek trilogy-Great one for the kids!
25) Star Wars series
26) The Boy in the Striped Pajamas-Although there is nothing specifically inappropriate in this film, it is thematically very heavy-watch this one after the kids are in bed and only if you want to go to bed depressed. But it's worth the Kleenex you'll go through!
27) Men in Black
28) Shaun of the Dead
29) South Park TV series
30) Friends TV series
