All of the Michael Nyman music in the Peter Greenaway films (especially "The Draughtsman's Contract" and "The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover").
The denouement to The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover, where Helen Mirren forces her husband to do the unspeakable, is absolutely stunning, coinciding as it does with the music's incredible climax, and is one of the best examples of music and film melding perfectly that I have ever seen. Couldn't talk for a while after I first saw that.
