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.

Almost Famous (2000)
A drama by Cameron Crowe, starring Fairuza Balk.
A young journalist travels with a rock band while writing a story about them.
Why did I list this film as starring a very minor character? Because it's Fairuza Balk, of course! Theplot and characters are good and I liked the style. The pace was quick, but the film was still very long (almost 3 hours). The soundtrack is made up of classic rock like one would find on a radio station, with bits of the fictional band mixed in. I had seen bits and pieces of this before, but never the whole thing. I'm rating this good because I just like it.
