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.

Elgar (1962)
A music documentary by Ken Russell.
The life and music of the composer, Edward Elgar is shown.
This film was SO BORING! They used black and white video segments and still pictures, accompanied by a dry monologue and some of the composer's music to tell his story. It would have been better represented with a recording accompanied by written material. Since I wish this film hadn't been made or I hadn't watched it, I have to rate it shit. I want the last 56 minutes of my life back!
