Don't have to

1-We only don't have to watch one of these movies.
2-We don't only have to watch one of these movies.
3-We don't have to only watch one of these movies.
4-We don't have to watch only one of these movies.
5-We don't have to watch one of these movies only.

Which of the above correspond to which of the below:



a-We alone don't have to watch one of these movies.

b-We have to do other things as well
c-We have to do something other than watching in regards to one of these movies. Maybe write a review of the movie we have watched.
d-We can watch more than one movie.
e-We have to watch all of these movies except one.

.
I think 1 corresponds to 'a' and 'e'

2 to 'b'
3 to 'c'
4 and 5 to 'd' and 'e'
1, 4 and 5 seem ambiguous.

Gratefully,
Navi.
