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.

Dead Man Walking (1995)
A drama by Tim Robbins, starring Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn.
A man is on death row because he killed teenagers and a nun is sent in to talk to him. They become friends and everyone outside the issue hates the nun for this and wants the death penalty for the killer.
I got about an hour into this and had to turn it off because the pace was too slow and it was too boring. I have a high tolerance for film quirks, so when I have to turn something off, it's really bad. Hence, I'm rating this shit.
