...and eating...and eating....and napping...and eating...it will clearly be time to go to the movies! But what movie should you see?

Life of Pi is one of the most gorgeous movies you'll see this year—and well worth the 3D prices—but I thought it was incredibly stupid.

But Life of Pi is a nuclear physicist in comparison with the Red Dawn remake, which is pretty much garbage all the way through.

My best bet—which is why I Suggested it this morning—for the perfect Thanksgiving movie is Silver Linings Playbook, which charms its viewers and sends them out into the world feeling good about everything:

...I'll be damned if I didn't love—absolutely love—being manipulated by this movie. The biggest surprise is Cooper, who doesn't fall into the actorly trap of drooling all over himself to portray mental illness. Cooper presents Pat's manic episodes as almost logical, except for the weird buzzing going on around his eyes, and the frantic edge that slips into his voice, creating a tense performance that feels fraught with real risk. It's hard to tell when he's being gripped by irrationality, because Pat himself can't tell. Cooper's performance inspires the best acting De Niro has offered up in years, a subtle portrait of an old man with undiagnosed mental problems who somehow managed to make do. He sees those same shades in his son's face, and he's alternately frightened, repulsed, and sympathetic.

But as good as the two men are, Jennifer Lawrence's Tiffany is easily the best thing about Playbook...
