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.

Black Snake Moan (2006)
A drama directed by Craig Brewer, starring Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci and Justin Timberlake.
A black farmer finds an almost dead slut on the side of the road and nurses her back to health. Her boyfriend, who has joined the army, but has left goes looking for her.
I liked the extremity of the situation and how the farmer had to keep the girl chained to his radiator. The plot and characters were alright, but not anything that I would call good. The style was standard for 2000s films. I have to again rate a film adequate because there wasn't anything wrong, but I didn't think it earned a good rating.
