Under the cherry moon movie score / Graffiti Bridge movie score

I know that Purple Rain's movie score was not done by Prince. But am a little unsure of Under the Cherry Moon, Graffiti Bridge and 3 Chains O Gold. I think they were done by Prince and/or Prince and Clair Fischer. Apologies if I'm incorrect.

Does anyone know if either score ever leaked.

The scores to the movies are also a potential candidates for future Super Deluxe Editions of those albums.

Thoughts...

For Under The Cherry Moon there is simply

Orchestra composed and arranged by

Clare Fischer

I have always loved the music scores for purple rain and graffiti bridge.Especially the music with the electric guitar at the beginning of graffiti bridge. It plays right after morris pee's on a plant and says 'I want my money...or this joint is mine" then Prince gives him that mean look and starts up his motorcycle.
Maybe the estate will one day release them

Yeah I think the score for GB is underrated.
