A Canadian Australian British mystery directed by Stephan Elliott, starring Ewan McGregor and Genevieve Bujold.
A man who has an imaginary daughter is trying to follow a woman. He video calls another woman at some type of office frequently.
The real mystery here was the plot. It seemed like just a jumbled series of scenes, rather than a coherent story. The female lead was always dressing differently and wearing different wigs, so I had real trouble identifying her. There was some whisper acting... At least the camera-work was good. When that's all I can say in praise of a film, you know it's really bad. I rate this shit because I spent the entire duration wishing I was not watching it. DO NOT WATCH!!!
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 adventures of priscilla, queen of the desert (1994)

A comedy written and directed by Stephan Elliott.
3 drag queens take a road trip across the desert.
The audio and video were good quality.
Check out: the first hotel they stay in and Bob's wife.
This one's a little hard to weigh for overall quality. There were some really good parts and great character development, but the whole gay drag queens thing is just so over-played in this film. I guess the point of gay drag queens is to be "over the top". I'm rating it good for the character development. Anyone who liked "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" will like this, although it's not quite as good as Hedwig.
