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.

Gerry (2002)
An adventure by Gus Van Sant, Casey Affleck and Matt Damon.
A pair of young men get lost in the desert.
More Gus Van Sant! There were only 2 characters and very sparse dialogue. The characters do some pretty stupid things like jumping off of a tall rock, keeping walking when they are clearly headed in the wrong direction and constantly changing the direction of their walk. Oh, well, it's a movie and that type of stupidity should be expected. Overall, I found it a little boring to just watch these dudes walk. I'm rating it o.k. because I've seen much worse.
