I did Bloodsport which was fine, I expcected more from it to be honest. Like I always imagined that the tournament would look more visually impressive than a white board. And Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon which I've discovered a new genre of film for me "pretty boring", films that are visually stunning to look at but the stories themselves are dull as dishwater. This and Scorsese's Silence are the ones that really come to mind for it

most likely made before the 60s. just taking place before the 60s is oddly specific and doesn't really push people outside their normal viewing habbits

My pick for a movie with a well-known song in it - Super Fly.
That pretty much goes for some of the songs on the soundtrack, but the title track trumps over the others in terms of how well known it is.
