I've stuck to my dreaded one-film-per-director rule, otherwise I might have had to find room for 2001: A Space Odyssey or 1900 or Days of Heaven somewhere on there as well. Regardless, it occurs to me that a separate, and no less fascinating, poll could be conducted from everyone's choices for spots 11-20.
