Slate's Spoiler Specials
Summary: Slate's Spoiler Specials are not reviews of current movies, but "postviews" -- audio critiques meant to be played AFTER you've seen the film. Slate movie critic Dana Stevens leads discussions of twist endings, plot holes, and other secrets you won't read in the reviews. It's the kind of discussion you have with friends as you're leaving the theater. P WARNING: Listening to these podcasts before you've seen a film could be hazardous to your suspension of disbelief!
