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.

Fast Food Nation (2006)
A drama directed by Richard Linklater.
A fast food representative investigates rumors of manure in meat, young people talk about the cows' living conditions and try to free them, migrant workers work in the meat plant.
This film was all beginning and a little bit of middle, but no end. All of the scenarios start and proceed for a while, but nothing really happens. The guy investigating the poop-meat talks to a few people and goes home, the young people try to free the cows, but to no avail and the migrant workers barely have any plot at all. I guess they tried to show how things happen in the real world. I'm rating it o.k. because it could have been so much better.
