Netflixeando: 20 Latino Films You Should Stream on Netflix This Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is hands down the best American holiday. It’s an entire day that is dedicated to gluttony. Overeating is not only encouraged, it’s considered a vital part of celebrating the Pilgrims, Plymouth Rock, and all that other stuff. Anyway, back to the eating. Latinos love to eat and celebrate and be merry just like everyone else, but our Thanksgivings are a little bit different. We feast on turkey and tamales, stuff ourselves with pumpkin pie and flan, and sip on pitorro while abuelita naps on the couch in a post-pavo food coma.
Regardless of how you spend your Thanksgiving, here are some Latino films you can watch on Netflix while recovering from your turkey hangover. Whether you’re breaking bread with your parents, nieces and nephews, abuelos or roommates — we’ve got you covered. Check out our handy rating system to make sure you don’t end up watching any sex scenes with your parents (awkward!) or freak out the little ones sitting at the kids table.
Happy Sansgíveen!
