Haha! 😁 In my defense, I consider Godard's seminal film among the greatest of all time --> 314. Breathless - Jean-Luc Godard (1959) (NOTE: #314 is a high ranking, especially when one considers all the great films that I feel fall short of my list)

... and Kenny G's Breathless? Well, let's just say it might not rank quite so high on my Rock/Jazz list -- even if I extended it ... by A LOT ...

Anyway, the one immediately coming to mind is this:

Which is actually named after the album, but still.

I remember coming across a film called Unknown Pleasures the other day, but I don't think there was any relation to the album.

Also, Loveless, Daydream Nation, Colossal Youth, Baby Driver (well... song), and Ten.
