Why? 20th Century Woman takes place in 1979 - the end of the 70's and has the word century?? (But man, some good songs about the 21st century.) I checked and the film is not distributed by 20th Century Fox.
Annette Benning Wiz Khalifa's "Dot Dot Dot" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZswslY29TM REASON: She plays Dorothea in 20TH CENTURY WOMAN and Dot is short for Dorothy/Dorothea. I would suggest Brad's "20th Century" but I'm not going to waste my time.
Steve Harvey War's "Smile Happy" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKAhkaycqKY REASON: Because he has big teeth and he should "smile happy". Don't play the part of the song that became the hook in Shaggy's "It Wasn't Me", just play the melody with the saxophone and harmonica.

Why: In his new film ‘Passenger,’ his character wakes up way too early from a cryogenic sleep, essentially leaving him to die on a dormant spaceship before it arrives to its destination.
Why? Her new movie is called "All We Had" and here is about a mom and her daughter who lose there house. The trailer shows Richard Kind giving her a job as waitress where she works and meets Luke Wilson and cleans up her act. So not a divorce - but the plots do share some similarity.
ALTERNATE PICK Yes' "Starship Trooper: A. Life Seeker; B. Disillusion. C. Würm" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1h6glhEwsbY REASON: Same as above. You can do the first part of the song ("Life Seeker") since it says the word "starship" although having Captain Kirk doing "Würm" (which begins at the 5:36 mark) would be even better. However, "accessibility" may be best.
Katie Holmes Clara Hill's "That Easy" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lan64_qH688 REASON: I've suggested this for her before as it would be a bit of play with her last name, due to this part of the song:
"...and if you in that familiar mood and it is so quiet inside you can hear your own thoughts sleeping then you are at home, I can feel it I'm at home"
ALTERNATE PICK: Tammy Wynette's "When Love Was All We Had" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZdnbQ-JsbQ REASON: Holmes is in ALL WE HAD. The chorus is where you'd bring it in: "Diamonds and furs cars marked his and hers can't catch you when you fall and they don't compare with the love that we shared back when we had it all we wanted to see just how far we could go but we've gone too far too bad for we had more so much more when love was all we had"
I was going to suggest William Bell's "If Sex Was All We Had" but playing it would also involve touching Holmes' abdomens. Anyway...

Edward Norton Graham Parker's "Temporary Beauty" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Px8laM6lwzw REASON: He's in COLLATERAL BEAUTY. I suggested it before, I'll try it again here.
Edward Norton The Temptations - Beauty Is Only Skin Deep
Riz Ahmed Body Rock - Mos Def - feat Q Tip & Tash Suggested by: handle Note: I'm taking credit since it's the same words, and same song title. Disputes welcome.
>Nintendo President Reggie Fils-Aime That meltdown was almost as bad as when he ate that bowl of spaghetti with Trump, Lady and The Tramp style.

Why ? The film stars Taraji P. Henson as Katherine Johnson, the African American physicist, space scientist, and mathematician who calculated flight trajectories for Project Mercury and the 1969 Apollo 11 flight to the Moon.
Note: Styles of Beyond is such a LA group in my mind.

Pharrell Williams Sir Guy & The Rocking Cavaliers' "Funky Virginia" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5nUx5c3zfY REASON: Because that's where he is from. This was originally released on DPG Records before it was picked up for distribution on Atlantic.

Dwayne The Rock Johnson John Rowles' "Cheryl Moana Marie" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haLD6Rlhbo8 REASON: It's for Johnson starring in MOANA. "Cheryl Moana Marie" is a song that for a few generations is celebrated by countless Polynesians due to what the song means. It is about a woman but metaphorically it's also about a place.
"Cheryl Moana Marie back home, she's waiting for me Cheryl Moana Marie there, on the shore, she's waiting so patiently
Cheryl Moana Marie some day, our waiting will end safe in my arms, she will be my Cheryl Moana Marie"
Also, in MOANA, it features Jemaine Clement from FLIGHT OF THE CONCORDS. Both Clement and John Rowles are from New Zealand and years ago, I stated these two seemed like they were "separated at birth". http://i44.tinypic.com/eskq51.jpg
When I hear "Cheryl Moana Marie", I cry because it reminds me of a song my dad used to sing a lot. Put this on in front of a Hawaiian around my age and they will be weeping. I give this in honor of Johnson and MOANA and hopefully he'll know why. He should, that's Samoan pride right there.
