Excellent list there. Haven't seen them all yet but based on the remainder of your list, I'll make it a point to do so. Always liked Hitchcock but only recently discovered Lang and Murnau.

Dapper looking cowboys have their appeal and did so when I was a kid but I find them more comical these days. I picture the old west as gritty and have far greater appreciation for the "Spaghetti" westerns. Don't discount them for that reason. There are a lot of classics that merit watching.

You might check out El Dorado, The Sons of Katie Elder, and True Grit to name a few.
