What the hell, I'll jump in the pool. Some of the best classical music I've been exposed to has been via present era movies. A great example is the opening sequence of Melancholia which uses Wagner's Tristan und Isolde Prelude to amazing affect. I immediately downloaded it and listen to it almost every day.

So hauntingly beautiful.
