I haven't seen all of these, but they were notable to me because they make some mention of the Basques, whether one of the characters is supposed to be Basque, or a family, or more.
If anyone has seen any others, I would greatly like to add to this list.
Buber, I found this page about Basques and the movies. There are some references on it that you don't seem to have.
I should have updated this list when you made your post, bertie, as that page no longer exists.
