I don't know EVERY movie that mentions "Catcher in the Rye," but there's a long scene in the play/movie "Six Degrees of Separation" about it. The character played by Will Smith, a charlatan pretending to be the well-to-do son of actor Sidney Poitier, claims he's written his thesis on "Catcher in the Rye" - specifically, he examines why the book is often championed by troubled young criminals like Mark David Chapman and John Hinckley Junior.

No, Salinger considered a play or movie and wanted to be the one to play Holden but nothing ever happened. He never sold the rights to his books.

There actually is no real adaption of the novel. There is one, called Rebel in the Rye, which is about Salinger's life and his process for writing the novel. However, Salinger said that he does not trust turning his novel into a movie for the sake of representation.
