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.

The Secret Of NIMH (1982)
An animated science fiction by Don Bluth.
A mouse who is famous among rats has her house in the way of the plow and it must be moved before her children are killed by the farmer.
This is one of those magical '80s animated films that you're never too old for. The style is great and the pacing is appropriate. I like the mysterious characters of Nicodemus and the great owl the most. I really wish kids' movies were still made like this. I'm rating it good.
