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.

The Secret of Oz (2009)
A documentary by Bill Still.
This film examines the evolution of money systems and how that pertains to the symbolism of The Wizard of Oz.
The audio and video were great. Better than most movies I watch. This is because I could clearly see and hear everything. What an amazing concept!
check out: "you can't pay off your debt with loans, just like you can't drink yourself sober."
The differences between money systems backed by gold, gold and silver, nothing, and debt were explained in detail for the first half. In the second half, the symbolism of The Wizard of Oz was exposed to be an analogy for politics and money systems. I usually like documentaries to be much more shocking than this, so it's one of the better o.k.s because of production value and the truth of the situation.
