One of my favorites - "Playing Love" from "The Legend of 1900". Unusual film, but amazing jazz piano music throughout.
Found this on youtube for those who had never seen the film:

A few years ago when I was playing in a cafe, I stood up, made an announcement to everybody that I'm going to dedicate a piece of music to my wife (who was there), and played this. Well, I didn't have the music - actually I had to transcribe by ear and practice it within 12 hours prior to playing in the cafe. I guess it went OK, but never did quite get the same "fuzzy feeling" the film gives when that guy was playing it.
Beautiful piece.
