Prince music in the movies

The other night i caught the 80's teen flick The Wild Life. Cameron Crowe's unofficial follow up to Fast Times At Ridgemont High, and at the party scene towards the end Prince's Dirty Mind was played. I was pretty impressed and surprised and it sounded great placed where it was. The movie also had a cameo by Ron Wood of the Rolling Stones! My question is what other movies have featured Prince songs besides the movies which have starred him?

The movie itself BTW wasn't too hot and not a patch on Fast Times, Chris Penn was hilarious though.

A song I can't remember right now from the 1999 album was in Risky Business. 'Delirious' was in another movie I saw but can't remember the name of either. then there was Spike Lee's movie Girl 6 of course. I didn't know anything from the Dirty Mind record was featured in any movie!

I can't remember the name of the movie where this girl is some sort of dancer trying to make it or something to that effect. In any case the joint "319" was in it.

Showgirls

"ripopgodazippa" also appears in the movie. in a scene where she screws some guy. the most memorable thing about this scene is that before they do it, she says she's on her period. the guy says "that's okay, i've got towels"

I saw that John Candy movie with Delirious last week.
Strange thing with Delirious is , in one Cheech and Chong
movie they also use Delirious in the background, it´s the
movie where they go to Amsterdam..but there´s another version of that movie where Delirious has been replaced by a
similar sounding song called Twisted, don´t know why...
The rest of the movie is the same , just that one scene with
Delirious has been redubbed or whatever.The other song sounds like someone trying to copy Delirious.
" I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?"

When doves cry wasn't in Moulin rouge (was it in Romeo must die?), but in Baz Lurhmann's previous film Romeo + Juliette.

I remember Fox Mulder in the X-Files being a big fan of Purple Rain.
