It was done for that CD (coolwalking...etc.) which came out a year ago.

Jerry McGuire was directed by Cameron Crowe (go rent the wonderful "Say
Anything")  who, before he directed films, was a rock journalist and
interviewed The Who many times.  Also his wife is the blond woman from
Heart.

As for other Oscar-nominated movies, there is "Tommy: The Movie" which
got 2 nominations for both Ann Margaret and Pete.  And for uses as
background music, try Martin Scorsese's "Goodfellas" which also features
the live version of "Magic Bus."  For non-Oscar films (not yet, anyway)
and if you liked the new mix of "Let My Love Open The Door," go see
"Grosse Point Blank" which uses it for a very romantic scene.
