There have been some great ones and Mascagni - Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana from Raging Bull, and some memorable ones Wagner - The Ride Of The Valkyries from Apocalypse Now.
Over to you.

Puccinis Madam Butterfly is nice
A lot of people dont know that I actually listen to classical when driving on the motorway...Its awesome!
I'm not to clever on titles mind but I remember Rachmaninov Theme For Paganini (is that right?) being really nice and haunting too.
Then again I really like old time Jazz like Benny Goodman and Duke Ellington too

Toccat and Fugue in D Minor by Bach is one of the first pieces of classical music I was aware of as a 14 year old. It was, of course, the music score from Rollerball, a MUST see as a 14 year old!!

Wasn't Clockwork Orange an electronic soundtrack. Beethoven given the Kraftwerk treatment, before Kraftwerk, by Wendy Carlos.
"Freude!"
For pure baroque, try Tout Les matin Du Monde.
