Some actually do. Of course the plastic film provides a great deal of mechanical damping. And with metallized units (as opposed to ones that actually have a layer of metal foil), the amount of metal is virtually insignificant and also intimately bonded to the plastic film.
But one of the big differences in sound between different plastic films (eg, mylar, polypropylene, Teflon, etc.) is due to the mechanical properties. Another thing that affects the sound of film caps significantly is how tightly they are wound.
