Kurosawa--- he's great, but so are many omitted films of other great directors. Still, these are all must-see films.
"La Chienne," interestingly, is the one I can't recall having previously seen.
Some lesser known gems here from Spain, "Cria Cuervos" and "The Spirit of the Beehive" are a welcome addition.
No S American films, not even Argentina and Brazil? Hmmm...
