Ok, so thinking outside of the box, think:

Chevy Chase, Kevin Costner, and Carly Simon.

Them or particular roles/songs?

Carly for a song, and it goes well with a role that Chevy did.

Kev out on his own, doing his thing in a particular role.

Nothing moves, and it's not a clip. But it does hold something.

It's a holder for an arrow vane when fletching (Carly Simon, 'You're so vain', Chevy Chase, 'Fletch', and Kevin Costner, 'Robin Hood')
