P.S.: The Worst Misuse of Delibes' 'Flower Duet'
Intro:
Like Vivaldi's 'Four Seasons' there are other classical masterpieces
that are misused to create the wanted effect in movies. 'Lakme' is another
masterpiece which is overused in many movies. But ist almost one track of the opera that filmindustries use for gathering the effect. I'm talking about the flower duet (creative commons, underthehome.com). It's written by Léo Delibes and one of the peaks of his work. Which movie or tv-series you have seen contains the worst misuse of Delibes 'Flower duet'? Tell me here.
Rules:
Please only movies or episodes of series, with dates. e.g.: season 1, episode 5, etc.
No documentaries, shorts, or productions rated lower than 5/10 except they're rated by more than 50.000 voters.

FYC, I like how this came out. There are a couple minor punctation and capitalization issues that should be corrected. I incorporated Peter and Jessica notes into this revision too. I like the hyperlinked sound clip, it really helpful. But, poll takers might not know its there, so a note would help, so they won't miss it, ie "The Flower Duet" (sound clip) © UMG/Decca.
Revisions
Like Vivaldi's 'Four Seasons', there are other classical masterpieces that are misused to create the wanted effect in movies. Similarly, 'Lakme' is another masterpiece which is overused in many movies. But one track of the opera is almost always used by the film industry for the "gathering effect". I'm talking about "The Flower Duet" (sound clip) © UMG/Decca. It was written by Léo Delibes and is considered one of his defining and most well-known works.
Which of these movies or TV series that you have seen contains the worst misuse of Delibes 'Flower duet'? (Instrumental or singing version.)

FYC, I am not sure if it falls into the "best use" or "worst use" category, The Hunger (1983).
