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.

Overboard (1987)
A romantic comedy directed by Garry Marshall, starring Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell.
A poor carpenter is hired by a rich woman who treats him badly. The rich woman falls off her boat and is picked up as an unidentified person. The carpenter then convinces her that she is his wife.
The focus here was on Goldie Hawn's acting. She plays 2 entirely different roles in this film. Plot, characters, blah blah blah... It would have just been o.k., but because of the leading lady's performance, it gets a good review.
