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.

Glory (1989)
A war film directed by Edward Zwick, starring Morgan Freeman and Denzel Washington.
A white army officer leads black troops.
The plot and characters were alight I guess. The setting was stale though. I don't even know how many films I've seen that glamorize war in such a way. I'm rating it adequate because it kept my attention, but the intentions of the filmmakers were evil.
