Has anyone compiled a list of movies in which gliders appear? I tried
googling, and it turned up some of the obvious names, such as _The
Thomas Crown Affair_ and _The Boy Who Flew With Condors_, but nothing
like a comprehensive listing.

in the movie _Wind_)

Assuming you mean more or less mainsream movies: Both Thomas Crown
Affair versions, Wind (which featured a terrible tail first crossed up
landing of a Grob), Escape from New York. Others?
IIRC, there's an old Polish, Romanian, Czech (?) film featuring gliders.
