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.

Crimes of the Future (1970)
A science fiction by David Cronenberg.
A strange doctor is searching for his mentor after all of the sexually mature women in the world have been killed by cosmetics.
This film was short at just over an hour, and pretty strange. The only voice in the audio is that of the narrator. It seemed to be British dry humor on display, but turned out to be from Canada. There were some definite analog synthesizer sounds in the soundtrack (possibly the entire thing). As the movie is short and mysterious, so is my blog entry. I'm rating it good, but don't know why.
