Ridley Scott directed Alien (Nation) and Thelma and Louise.
Richard Lester directed (The Girl Can't) Help and Superman II

If one of the remaining films is The Wolf of Wall Street, that would yield Wall Street and a match with Platoon and Oliver Stone.

What we have unanswered and filing in some movies

Movies

1. This comedy was not even included on the first AFI list of “100 Years … 100 Movies,” but on the 10th Anniversary List, it showed up in 18th place – the second-highest ranking for any silent film
THE GENERAL - confirmed

3. This influential New Wave film consists entirely of a conversation between a French actress and a Japanese architect)
HIROSHIMA, MON AMOR

7. This movie about drug addiction was based on a Broadway hit by a playwright who, seventeen years later, would earn an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor.

Still nothing.

9. Many of the scenes in this movie were filmed through a mirror, since the actor playing the lead role couldn’t quite manage to live up to the title of the movie.

Could this be The BABE RUTH STORY? Because it would give us Babe to go with Mad Max's George Miller.

10. “It was an old tradition. Only the most dutiful of daughters would put her own flesh in a soup to save her mother's life. My mother did this with her whole heart even though my grandmother had disowned her. This is how a daughter honors her mother. The pain of the flesh is nothing. The pain you must forget. This is the most important sacrifice a daughter can make for her mother.”

JOY LUCK CLUB

17. For his role in this movie, Bob Dylan was nominated for a Golden Turkey Award for Worst Performance by a Singer. (He lost to Tony Bennett.)
PAT GARRETT AND BILLY THE KID - confirmed

19. To ward off threatened protests by the American Legion, Columbia Pictures made a short film to accompany this movie in which business professors decried its iconic lead character. (Ah, the 1950s….)

VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED

37. Antiwar activist Stan Goff said that agreeing to act as military consultant for this actioner – which he dubbed “yet another male revenge fantasy” – was the worst mistake he ever made. (What was he expecting from Ah-nold, pacifism?)

How much deeper his vision of life was. And I thought Michael was a hedgehog and Jack was a fox. And then I thought Judy was a fox and Gabe was a hedgehog. And I thought about all the people I knew, and which were hedgehogs and which were foxes. Al Simon, a friend, was a hedgehog, and his wife Jenny was a hedgehog. And Cindy Salkind was a fox. And Lou Patrino was a hedgehog.”

HUSBANDS AND WIVES - WHICH goes with Manhattan (Melodrama) for Woody Allen.

And possibly John Cassavetes

49. This 1958 film was based on the second novel by the author of Bonjour Tristesse.

The is A CERTAIN SMILE. Could there be another Michael Ritchie picture?

55. The subject of this biopic was posthumously inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame four years before the movie was released.

THE HURRICANE? Can't be. Carter didn't die until 2014.

How about GENTLEMAN JIM Corbett? Raoul Walsh directed.

71. The victim of the mob hit cited in the title of this Indie movie was played by Soto Joe Hugh – and if you’ve never heard of him, it’s because he never made another film appearance.

73. When this 1975 film was first shown in the United States, one distributor threw his coffee cup at the screen in frustration over the lack of a solution to its central mystery.

PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK ... which gets us our missing Joshua Logan move

“Yes it is, very hard. It's almost impossible.”

MAN ON THE FLYING TRAPEZE

109. This was the first talkie for both an Oscar-winning actor and his native country.

THE BLUE ANGEL? If it is, it gives us Von Sternberg for Morocco.

110. “The normal question, the first question is always, are these cannibals? No, they are not cannibals. Cannibalism in the true sense of the word implies an intrapecies activity. These creatures cannot be considered human. They prey on humans. They do not prey on each other - that's the difference. They attack and they feed only on warm human flesh.”

DAWN OF THE DEAD

113. The native huts in this lush Pre-Code romance were reused a year later in the film cited in Clue #98.

THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME.

114. “Look, why don't you stop pressing? Mrs. Crandall might have been interested in your product, but Mrs. Markham is not.”
“You're taking an awful lot for granted, aren't you?”
“Strange; I was thinking the same thing about you.”
“Why? Just because I'm being friendly?”
“You're about as friendly as a suction pump.”

FEMALE ON THE BEACH. Which gives us ON THE BEACH to go with IAMMMMMW and Stanley Kramer.

118. “But sweetheart, I can't be your mother!”

SUDDENLY LAST SUMMER (should have gotten this earlier)

I think this will gives us Cleopatra's Joseph Mankiewicz

126. "My father owned the zoo, and I was delivered on short notice by a herpetologist, who was there to check on the Bengal monitor lizard. Mother and I were both healthy, but the poor lizard escaped and was trampled by a frightened cassowary. The way of karma, huh? The way of God. "

LIFE OF PI

129. This family-friendly movie starring Opie’s kid brother became a family-friendly television series starring Opie’s kid brother.

The movie was called GENTLE GIANT. Giant leads me to believe we have a George Stevens movie here.

VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED

37. Antiwar activist Stan Goff said that agreeing to act as military consultant for this actioner – which he dubbed “yet another male revenge fantasy” – was the worst mistake he ever made. (What was he expecting from Ah-nold, pacifism?)

COLLATERAL DAMAGE
This frees a few things up.

Luchino Visconti directed (Village of) The Damned and Death in Venice.

Andrew Davis directed The Fugitive (Kind) and Collateral Damage.

I tried to find a Michael Mann film for Collateral, then realized I was looking at the wrong word.

Louis Malle directed (Collateral) Damage and Vanya on 42nd Street.

105. The climactic battle scene in this film influenced such later films as Spartacus, Olivier’s Henry V, and The Empire Strikes Back, while its Prokofiev score was used directly in one of Woody Allen’s funniest movies.

ALEXANDER NEVSKY?
This has to be right, because it yields Alexander, to go with Platoon for Oliver Stone.

This yields Last Summer, a movie that made a great impression on me as a teenager because it was the first time I saw Barbara Hershey without her clothes on.

And it was directed by Frank Perry, who also directed Mommy Dearest.

Some cheating and some guesswork here. There have been two major movies named Billy the Kid, a 1930 film directed by King Vidor and a 1941 film directed by David Miller. As Melly pointed out, Vidor also directed The Crowd, and Frank wouldn't use Vidor twice in the same way.

But in researching Vidor's and Miller's filmographies, I couldn't find another of either of their movies that fit the list. I'm wondering if Number 19 might be The Fountainhead, which would be the link to Vidor for The Crowd.

As for Miller, the IMDB listing for the 1941 Billy the Kid lists Frank Borzage as an "uncredited" director. I'm not sure what that means, but if he actually directed the film, then that's the link to Stage Door Canteen.

Neither 'Billy the Kid' movie is part of this game. And the King Vidor movie has not yet been identified.
