Very nice list. Unfortunately, de Oliveira is a film maker I'm not very well versed in, so I'm definitely going to throw your number two on my "must watch" list. That and Sparrow are the only ones I haven't seen. I really love your Mizoguchi, Dreyer, Welles, Hitchcock and Ford (who is suddenly becoming increasingly amazing to me) selections. We Won't Grow Old Together is one of those films that deserves much more recognition.
