Favorite Thanksgiving Movie

One of my favorite Thanksgiving movies is Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. I can watch that movie over and over again and never get tired of all the funny lines (except that they could leave out the language of the car rental scene.....why do they have to do that?). Anyway, I still love the movie. Here's my favorite part:

The car Del (John Candy) and Neal (Steve Martin) are in has been burnt due to a fire. A state trooper pulls them over and here is the conversation:

Del: Top of the morning officer.

Neal: Hi.

Del: Is there something I can help you with?

State Trooper: What the h--- are you driving here?

Del: We had a small fire last night, but we caught it in the nick of time (ha ha).

State Trooper: Do you have any idea how fast you were going?

Del: Funny enough, I was just talking to my friend about that. Our speedometer is melted and as a result, it's very hard to say with any degree of accuracy, exactly how fast we were going.

State Trooper: 78 miles an hour.

Del: (Whistles) 78 huh? Well, yeah, I could buy that, sure, I guess you would know better than us, ahh, especially since we've got a melted speedometer.

State Trooper: Do you feel this vehicle is safe for highway travel?

Del: Yes, I do, yes I really do. I believe that and, I know it's not pretty to look at, but it'll get you where you want to go.

State Trooper: Now, you got no outside mirror.

Del: No, we lost that.

State Trooper: You have no funtioning gages.

Del: No, not a one. However, the radio still works. Funny as that may seem. With all this mess that the radio is the only thing that's really working good. And it's clear as a bell. Don't ask me how (both Del and Neal chuckle).

State Trooper: I can't let you go ahead in this vehicle.

Neal: Can't what?

State Trooper: No, it's not fit for the rode. The vehicle will be impounded until such time it can be made safe for travel on state highways.

Del: Ok office (with his hands up), I admit it, I....I broke the law and for that I'm really sorry. I am and it'll never happen again. You got me there and I won't argue with you one-I-oda, I swear. However, um....if you impound our car, I'm going to be unable to get my friend here home in time for his Thanksgiving dinner.
