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.

47 Ronin (1994)
A samurai film directed by Kon Ichikawa.
A group of ronin plan an attack on their enemy and then execute the plan.
The first hour and a half of this film was the most boring samurai cinema that I have ever seen. The attack takes place in the last half hour and features some "red spray paint" style bloodletting. The characters all seemed to be the same except for the girl selling pens. She was over-enthusiastic and acting her little ass off. I'm rating this poor for being so damn boring.
