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.

Amelie (2001)
A romantic comedy directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet.
A young woman who works in a cafe in France finds a time capsule in the wall of her bathroom. This sends her on a quest to help the people around her and eventually lure in a romantic partner.
The audio was in French and subtitles had to be hunted down. The video was awesome.
check out: Fucking with the asshole grocer.
I normally don't like romantic comedies, but this one is different. The tasteful use of special effects and strange sense of humor that was written in make it an instant classic. The characters and plot were very good. In fact, the only thing wrong with this film is how much of a pain in the ass it is to find subtitles for.
