French national anthem

How many American scores made reference to the French national anthem? I can only think of two off the top of my head: Casablanca and Spirit of St. Louis.

I'd be curious, to know more about your defintion of an "american" score". Max Steiner and
Franz Waxman are neither from birth, nor from their musical background, anything less than
american.

Btw, didn't Georges Delerue use hints of the FNC in his score for "Day Of The Jackal"? Or were
this just source cues? And is this an american or a french score? Puzzling... ;-)

American score = score to an American film "neq" score composed by an American composer to "A" film

I'm positive, far more than are counted by IMDb.
