Favorite Movies of Great Musicians?

I just heard John Fogerty mention some great movies (The Devil and Daniel Webster and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre) and thought to myself, "The best usually love the best" - and might find some great recommendations this way, but I think you can tell more about someone's movie interests than their music.. I'd say the same for comedy.

John Lennon mentioned he was a fan of Orson Welles and Fellini.. Once mentioned "Citizen Kane".

Roger Waters liked "El Topo".

I'm reading John Fogerty's book, and he says how he loves the movie "Ace In The Hole" (Billy Wilder, starring Kirk Douglas) which is a favorite of mine..
