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 Dirty Dozen (1967)
A war film directed by Robert Aldrich, based on the book by E. M. Nathanson.
An army leader who is not well liked is selected to lead 12 soldiers guilty of war crimes on a dangerous mission behind enemy lines.
I remember watching this film when I was very young. It somehow seems different now. The characters are good, but the plot is a little stale. I'm not saying I didn't enjoy watching it, but it's nothing really special. I'm rating it adequate.
