Twilight Time has only licensed 'a handful' of titles, which is basically 5. I'm not sure if Sunshine counts as part of the group or not. If so there may be only 1 more to be announced by them. I say it will be Mary, Queen of Scots. If Sunshine is not part of the 5, I say they will release something like Blue Collar, Ulzana's Raid, Play it as it Lays, The Don is Dead or The Great Waldo Pepper as the last remaining title.

I read that Cattle Annie is no longer with Universal. MGM has the rights from what I understand. One Deadly Summer they no longer have rights to and it has been released on Blu by Bayview Entertainment. It is available now. Some of the titles you listed, Casanova, Running, Beyond the Reef they may no longer have rights to.

FM screams out Shout Factory IMO.

I predict Kino will release MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS.
It would seem appropriate for ICEMAN to come from Shout! / Scream.

Here's my guesses to who got what:

Kino
Diary of a Mad Housewife
Puzzle of a Downfall Child
Red Sky at Morning
The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid
The Girl from Petrovka
Mustang Country
September 30, 1955
The Seduction of Joe Tynan
Resurrection

Shout/Scream Factory
Skullduggery
The Don is Dead
The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings
Swashbuckler
The Last Remake of Beau Geste
FM
The Prisoner of Zenda
In God We Trust
The Nude Bomb
Heartbeeps

Twilight Time
Mary, Queen of Scots
Breezy
The River

Arrow
The Groundstar Conspiracy
That Man Bolt
Trick Baby
Guyana: Cult of the Damned

Criterion
Taking Off
Casanova
Melvin and Howard

Just a few that - to me - seem likely.
