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.

Two Lane Blacktop (1971)
An adventure directed by Monte Hellman, starring James Taylor.
A pair of car geeks picks up a girl who falls in love with one of them and begin a cross country race with a man in another car.
The characters did not have names and the plot didn't seem to make much sense. However, the style was absolutely the best. I don't like cars, but there's something about '70s car movies that thrills me greatly. I guess they figured that just driving would be boring, so they instilled this really cool style into the films. I'm rating this awesome.
