I'm a big Wilder fan and did consider a lot of his films, one's that got close where, Double Indemnity, Sunset Boulevard, Witness for the Prosecution and Some Like It Hot. I also considered Lost Weekend. If I'd have done it in decades, all those films along with Stalag 17 would have been in. However, I chose 5 films from each of the 3 decades, which meant great films had to miss out. But I give the option to choose any film not in the poll.
