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.

Autumn Sonata (1978)
A drama by Ingmar Bergman.
A woman invites her mother to visit her where she lives with her husband and sick sister. Conversations between the mother and daughter bring up bad memories.
The pace was really slow, but the style was great. There was almost no plot and very few characters. It's really hard for me to rate something like this, as I almost feel that there was nothing there to rate. I have to default to o.k. because of this.
