The 1971 movie OMEGA MAN is based on the 1954 novel I AM LEGEND whose hero listens to, among other classical music works, the Jupiter symphony:
https://listfulofhorrors.wordpress.com/2017/12/02/i-am-legend-the-soundtrack/
(From the novel):
- Now he sat in the living room, listening to Mozart’s Jupiter Symphony and wondering how he was to begin, where he was to begin his investigation.

At the moment (and I don't think it's ever been much different) my go to recording are the 39 - 41 with Harnoncourt and the Chamber Orch of Europe, at the bicentennial memorial concert in 1991.

- This film explores, very subtly, a question many people may not ask after seeing it, “Was the virus created to save lives, or as a revenue stream?” Were enough clinical trials conducted over a long enough period of time in order to know that the virus was safe for mass distribution? Was it rushed into the marketplace to capitalize on pharmaceutical companies making major money? We don’t get answers in the form of the history of the drug, but it’s clear that the world has suffered greatly. So, then because of a misstep, whether morally or genetically, our capitalistic society is quite literally being reclaimed by nature, with wild beasts roaming the streets devouring anything they can kill to survive.

- it is for the finale that Mozart has reserved all the resources of his science, and all the power, which no one seems to have possessed to the same degree with himself, of concealing that science, and making it the vehicle for music as pleasing as it is learned. Nowhere has he achieved more.

I have no obvious favorites (Gardiner comes close), but a few alternatives.
