No one has mentioned the Italian Job yet.  Somewhere buried in the documentary for the film is where the Director was desparately trying to work out how they were going to finish the movie (looking for a sequel).  I am pretty sure it was Quincy Jones sitting down with the director and Michael Cane sketched out the famous Coach on the Edge of a cliff scene on the back of a restaurant napkin.

 

Quincy Jones was a genius.  As a grumpy old non Michael Jackson fan (other than the story about his snake eating the pet parrot in the Thriller Studio), I love all the Brothers Johnson stuff and all his big band material.
