Purple Rain is a 1984 American musical drama directed by Albert Magnoli, starring Prince in his acting debut.

The soundtrack - featuring 'When Doves Cry' and the title track - won the Academy Award for Best Original Song Score.

About: 200 Motels

200 Motels is a surrealist musical film from 1971, directed by Frank Zappa and Tony Palmer. It follows the fictional touring misadventures of Zappa's band The Mothers of Invention, blending concert footage with absurdist comedy sketches. The film was a pioneer in being shot entirely on videotape before conversion to film.
