Don’t you hate critics who give away major plot points in their reviews? Today’s trailers commit similar sins, forcing me to watch some through half-closed eyes to retain a measure of mystery.

Sometimes, even a DVD box cover can spoil the fun. Was perusing the otherwise beautiful packaging for “My Blueberry Nights,” coming out this week on DVD, when I read a major spoiler right there in the film’s synopsis.

I won’t reveal what’s said, but I sure wish they hadn’t been so … forthcoming with the product description. “Nights” wasn’t a hit in theaters, so many people, like myself, will be catching it for the first time on DVD. (Watch for my “Nights” review later this week).
