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.

McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971)
A western directed by Robert Altman.
A gambler and a professional prostitute build a successful brothel. Businessmen from out of town want to buy it, but the gambler refuses their price. The businessmen summon bounty hunters to kill the gambler and take his brothel.
This film was long (2 hours), but felt even longer because of the slow pace. The production quality was absolutely terrible. The plot and characters were alright, so I'm rating this o.k.
