A bit of a struggle to come up with films with this connection. If anyone would like to add their own, it might be fun.

I got stuck on Frank bc he sang Once Upon a Time, Nancy sang You Only Live Twice, he was in the rat pack as three amigos, and he sang The Lady is a Tramp. I should have looked at the key words and not get too intricate with the "connection." Good job, cris! We don't like easy.
