'Blind' luck

Even the best actors have clunkers in their past they wish no one would ever see.

Jack Nicholson starred in a few Roger Corman "classics" before going on to win Oscar after Oscar.

So it may go for Chris Pine, the man who will be Capt. James T. Kirk this Christmas in the "Star Trek" reboot.

He's already got the clunker part of his resume down cold.

"Blind Dating," out on DVD next week (Feb. 5), offers Pine as a blind man named Danny trying to find the right woman.

Within the first minute you know you've got a disaster on your hands. A young Danny runs through a park and rams straight into a tree.

Har har.

Moments later, Jane Seymour's psychiatrist character is disrobing in front of an adult Danny.

Stop ... you're killing me!

It only gets worse from here.
