Great thread! Out of your list I've seen three: Daughter from Danang, Secrets and Lies, Smoke Signals. All three are excellent and would recommend them to anyone.
Here are my recommendations for adoption themed flicks:
1.
Flirting with Disaster - a comedy in which an adult adoptee on a cross country trip is in search of his birth parents (

2.
Catfish In Black Bean Sauce - a Vietnamese sister and brother adopted by an African American couple reunite with their birth mother. A comedy-drama (

3.
My Flesh and Blood - documentary about a single mother raising 11 children, all of whom were adopted from the CA foster care system (

4.
Fakin Da Funk - comedy-drama where a Chinese boy adopted by an African American family faces a culture clash in his neighborhood as an adolescent(

5.
Losing Isiah - drama about an African American boy abandoned by his birth mother and adopted by a white couple. Birth mother eventually contests adoption and a custody trial ensues (
http://www.allmovieguide.com/cg/avg.dll).
6.
Who are the Debolts (and where did they get 19 kids)?
A documentary about a family where 13 of the kids were adopted (

I don't know if there are any Soprano fans out there but there is currently an interesting adoption story line involving one of the major characters. I won't spoil it here, though.
