In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

badlands (1973)
a crime drama directed by terrence malick
a young man who is said to look like james dean takes a shine to a 15 year old girl. he shoots her father, burns down the house, and they ride off across the country. they settle down in the forest for a while before our james dean look-alike resumes his trail of murder.
it looked good and didn't need subtitles. there was even some good music.
I liked it. it's not the best movie I've ever seen, but it was worth watching. short and sweet, just like my description of it.
