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.

A Serious Man (2009)
A drama written, produced and directed by Joel and Ethan Coen.
A Jewish man's life falls apart.
The audio and video were good.
check out: Stoned at the Bar Mitzvah.
There is a story that is told in this film of a dentist who finds writing on the inside of a patient's teeth. The story takes a long time to tell, but has no conclusion. This film is just like that story in that it has no conclusion. Otherwise, it's pretty good. It would get a good review if it had an ending, but as it is, it's just o.k.
