Give it some time. They just put those movies on the service. Back in March, I put on Secretariate and I was very disappointed that there was no audio description. But then a couple of months later I checked again after someone on the list said that there was in fact audio description and this time there actually was audio description. So maybe in a couple of months, they will add audio description for these movies too.
