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.

Golden Earrings (1947)
A drama directed by Mitchell Leisen.
A British spy in Germany before world war 2 has to pretend to be a gypsy in order to elude the German soldiers.
The gypsy theme of this film has it's own quaint charm to it and there was a fight that looked very real. The whole story is told in a flashback when the man is questioned about his pierced ears. Otherwise, it was mediocre and mundane. I'm rating it o.k. for blending in with the crowd.
