Inspired by the current [SD feature article](http://www.straightdope.com/mailbag/mheadbutting.html), how many instances of head-butting can we come up with from the wonderful world of movies? First time I can recall seeing that manuever in a movie was in **the Commitments**. Then there’s **Red Eye** (which is mentioned in the article). How many more head-butts have occurred?
