Today we celebrate the birthday of Fredric Chopin, a Polish composer of over 230 pieces of music, mostly for the piano.  He influenced other composers such as Schumann,  Liszt, and Brahms and Scriaban.  In addition, his music can be found in dozens of movies over the years.  Here is a list of some of the more popular movies that used music from this legendary composer.

1)  Sneakers

2)  The Truman Show

3)  The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

4)  10 Things I Hate about You

5)  The Prestige

6)  XXX

7)  Bad Santa

8)  The Pianist

9)  The Peacemaker

10)  Walk Hard:  The Dewey Cox Story

Of course, there are dozens of foreign movies on this list that I know nothing about.  For a complete list, check out:  Yahoo
