Mapman - yep, you got it. Exactly. Both those films are exactly what I'm after. Where the subject or some key aspect of the plot has something to do with music. It does not have to be the entire story, though that's fine too, but some aspect of it must include music as a key element.
Tubegroover, I think there's plenty of films out there that still have not been mentioned. No need to go to the mediocre selections (though I've never seen any of those you posted I'm taking that as your inference).
Certainly you could go to a movie guide and look up examples. I guess I was interested in films folks had seen and might recommend to others here, since we're all a bunch of music lovers here. This applies to everything I've mentioned thus far - I'd recommend any one of them, some more than others, but not a dud in the bunch, IMHO.
