Funny holidays - International Spoiler Day

People need thrills and vivid emotions, so they watch horror films that guarantee an adrenaline rush Solving a mysterious crime together with a detective from a detective series makes the brain actively work and gives the viewer a feeling of involvement in the events taking place on the screen You can lose an indescribable range of emotions in an instant after communicating with a well-wisher who has decided to briefly retell the plot of a book or film A spoiler (from the English to spoil - “poison”, “spoil”) makes getting acquainted with a love and adventure novel less exciting, and deprives the intrigue of watching a thriller or drama The creators of an unusual holiday - International Spoiler Day - demanded that future viewers and readers stop retelling the plots of films, theatrical productions and books Thanks to the initiative of conscious Americans, whose names have not gone down in history, June 4 is celebrated annually as International Spoiler Day For the first time, a request not to voice the contents of the play according to one of the versions was made in 1952 at the end of the premiere of the play “The Mousetrap,” based on Agatha Christie The London theater troupe, which bowed to the public, asked not to tell friends and acquaintances about who the killer was Hitchcock specifically forbade the cast and crew of Psycho from talking about the film According to another version, the creators of the thriller “The She-Devil” first approached the audience in 1954 with a request not to deprive friends of the pleasure before watching the film and not to reveal the intrigue The term "spoiler" was used by its founder, editor and author Douglas Kenney in an article in National Lampoon magazine In the April 1971 issue, he briefly recounted all the plot twists in books and films from Anita Christie mysteries to the aforementioned Psycho The journalist urged readers to save time and money on viewing paintings and reading works of art by doing something useful Both the producers and directors of modern cinema and the audience completely disagree with Douglas Kenno’s point of view They believe that a spoiler ruins the suspense and deprives a person of the pleasure they get from immersing themselves in the plot of a theater production, film or game Therefore, at the initial stage of cooperation, actors and other members of the film crew sign an agreement on non-disclosure of project details The negative attitude of many viewers towards revealing the plot of a film, series and reality show is called “spoiler phobia” Retelling the content of a picture or game, of course, is not a crime, but it deprives people of an independent experience of intrigue along with the characters, which spoils the impression of works of art, which are theater and cinema International Spoiler Day is called upon to draw attention to the inadmissibility of spoilers
