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 Man in the Iron Mask (1998)
An adventure by Randall Wallace, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, John Malkovich and Gerard Depardieu.
The king of France is a terrible man who is ruling the country unwisely. A group of Musketeers (3 to be exact) find that the king has a twin brother and plot to switch kings.
This took me a while to watch, as I've been very busy. The characters develop well with the plot like they should. The style and production value were pretty decent. The pacing was a little slow, as it was over 2 hours long, but overall enjoyable. There were some good fencing scenes. I'm rating it good.
