This is an odd time to be posting about Christmas films, but that's what I am doing. Four films, one or two of them merely set over Christmas and New Year, the others more explicitly about the holidays.

The 25 Best Thanksgiving Movies to Enjoy Over a Long, Indulgent Weekend – Vogue

Whether you’re heading home for Thanksgiving this month or camping out with friends, you’ll likely be spending at least a few hours looking for the perfect movie (or movies!) to help kindle the holiday spirit. To be sure, the brilliance of classics like A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, Miracle on 34th Street, and Planes, Trains & Automobiles should never be understated—but sometimes, it’s fun to cue up something a little different.

To that end, we’ve crafted a list of slightly more offbeat movies set on, around, or at the very least around the idea of Thanksgiving for your viewing pleasure. So, as you look ahead to a long weekend of eating and drinking, browse our favorite Thanksgiving-y movies below.

His Three Daughters (2023)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0jwAP2fS1E

If you need a little escape from your own semi-dysfunctional family this holiday season, consider Azazel Jacobs’s intimate drama about three sisters (played by Elizabeth Olsen, Carrie Coon, and the great Natasha Lyonne) who reunite in New York City to care for their dying father. Cue: fierce infighting, some light gambling, and moments of truly touching grace.

The Humans (2021)

https://youtu.be/dp3Whb77eXc

Adapted from director Stephen Karam’s own Tony-winning play, The Humans—about a family assembled in a leaking, creaking Lower Manhattan apartment for Thanksgiving dinner—features a winning ensemble cast, including Amy Schumer, Beanie Feldstein, Steven Yeun, and June Squibb.

Little Women (2019)

Most Popular

Yes, it was released on Christmas Day in 2019—and has all of the snow and crackling fires to make that appropriate—but Greta Gerwig’s spirited retelling of Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel goes down easy on Thanksgiving, too. One of history’s great family dramas, Little Women is at once about four sisters finding their way in the world, and the ties that bind them all together.

Krisha (2015)

https://youtu.be/wnX_lLuENfI

In Trey Edward Shults’s bracing feature-length directorial debut, Krisha Fairchild plays Krisha, a sort of recovering addict who invites her estranged extended family over for Thanksgiving dinner. While the day begins peaceably enough, in time tempers flare, feelings get hurt, and it becomes clear that Krisha isn’t quite as reformed as she’d claimed to be.

Movie Review: “A Very Jonas Christmas Movie” is cringey, chaotic and kind of charming

Sitting at a brief 80 minutes, the Jonas Brothers’ new film, “A Very Jonas Christmas Movie,” knows exactly what it is and wastes no time pretending otherwise.  It’s an explosive swirl of holiday magic mixed with millennial cringe. The musical-movie is chaotically packed with humor and nostalgia, aimed at true fans of the brothers.  The […]

Day 18 -- Holiday Movie You Would Watch With Your Bias(es)

The invitees: all of my biases. so quite a quite a lot of idols. Here is an incomplete list from the beginning of the year: https://c.im/@jemmesedi/111693952710099235

The setting: screening room with comfortable armchairs and sofas, plus lots of blankets and cushions.

The refreshments: hot tea and Walker's shortbread.*

The film: The Snowman (1982)

I chose this 25 minute animation because it's a charming holidayish film without any dialogue, the only words being those of the song "Walking in the Air" *. As such, it would be suitable for viewers with limited English.

The film, based on a wordless picture book by Raymond Briggs, was made in 1982 for the British TV station Channel 4. It's become a staple of British holiday viewing, but I am not sure that it is that well known beyond the UK.

The through-composed score by Howard Blake works so well.

Although the film is suitable for young viewers, it isn't babyish. It doesn't have any religious content, nor could it be considered remotely controversial in any way.

I think the Snowman is an ideal film for sharing with idols, and you all might enjoy it too!

If John Hughes had simply shot a few scenes twice then Planes, Trains and Automobiles would be a Christmas classic for those who celebrate that holiday.

Thanksgiving might be secular but is also very American.

I just saw it in a cinema with the whole family and everyone, not just us, really enjoyed it. It is Hughes' and Candy's best and up there for Steve Martin as well.
