Wednesday I was driving back from Santa Fe and listened to the march from Rimsky-Korsakov’s _Le Coq d’Or_. The theme was very familiar, and I swear I’ve heard it before in some (military?) movie. I’m losing sleep. Film music Dopers, please help me! What’s the movie?

This page [Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov - IMDb](http://imdb.com/name/nm0006253/) says it was used in “The Price of Milk”, but that doesn’t seem to be a military movie. Just a moo-vie. 🙂
