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.

Catfish (2010)
A documentary by Henry Joost, Ariel Schulman and Yaniv Schulman.
A photographer in New York gets a painting of one of his pictures sent to him by an 8 year old girl in Michigan. This starts a waterfall of facebook friendships, one of which with a woman named Megan. After communicating online, the photographer goes to Michigan to see these people.
This film is the opposite of The Social Network, as the fake people are exposed. I really don't want to wreck the plot for anyone who is going to watch this, so that's all I can say. I'm rating it good.
