Happy Thanksgiving! Here are 10 Iconic Dinner Scenes
Thanksgiving, despite its violent and genocidal history, tends to bring families together for one splendorous meal where everyone shares what they’re grateful for while trying to avoid talking about politics. In honor of this festivity, we’ve selected 10 iconic dinner scenes — some good, some a little uneasy, some musical — to set the tone. Enjoy!
