Live Poll: When The Girl from Ipanema Passes Everyone Goes "Aah"

Hello, community, another idea for your appraisal. Thank you.

"The Girl from Ipanema" (composed by Antônio Carlos Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes) is presumably the second most recorded pop song in the world, according to Wikipedia, second only to "Yesterday" by The Beatles.


It is easily mistaken by another popular song "Brazil" (Aquarela do Brasil) by Ary Barroso.

In conformity with the Internet Movie Database here follows some films having the tune "The Girl From Ipanema" in their soundtracks (being whistled, elevator musak, generic background music).

Cartoons and tv series were excluded.

Which is your favorite movie in this list?

(chronological order)

When you say cartoons were excluded, you mean only television?

I see a lot of animated films in your list.

OK, I corrected it. I meant cartoons like Bugs Bunny, Looney Tunes, Simpsons. Thank you.

TV cartoons and TV series were excluded.

'Great idea, Mario! My vote will go to The Fabulous Baker Boys, Deconstructing Harry, or V for Vendetta. 

May I suggest a few small edits to the intro? (below in bold; except for the first one, they're just added commas)
