Movies To Watch While The Bird Cooks (Thanksgiving)

For some reason beyond me. Most people don't just watch football on Thanksgiving. How odd is that? I can't see that being something I miss. I watch the game. It helps the day get started. Since some of y'all don't watch the games. I'll help y'all out. I put together a list of the movies you should watch. When you really should just be watching the games. Get it together. All are on Netflix and some might be something you might never heard of. Give it a try. Trust me.
