In the mid '80s Mick Jones of The Clash had a solo project, I forget what it was called but one of the tracks sampled bits of Nick Roeg's 'Performance'.
Indeed - Big Audio Dynamite on the track E=MC2
As does Mad Cyril by Happy Mondays - "We've been courteous"

Just remembered that Saint Etienne had a 'thing' about sampling TV/film dialogue, such as:

Only partially valid, as James Lavelle wrote the soundtrack anyway, but UNKLE's "Widescreen edit a new hope" has samples of Ray Winstone from the film Sexy Beast. NSFW if you're thinking of playing it in the office!

I've just been recommended "Gunship" (retro 80's synth) which seems to cover a lot of bases in terms of most of the stuff being based on films...

On a similar note, Chumbawamba's Tubthumping samples Brassed Off.
