They wouldn't, but its not *essential* to the plot that they do. 

>>Same goes for the Sirius/Peter-betrayal of the Potters bit. 
Even if Cuaron didn't want to get into explaining Secret Keepers, 
could he at least leave in the fact that the Potter home was a 
location hidden from Voldemort and Peter divulged it? Because I 
don't see how that can be inferred from the movie either.<<

I might be wrong here, but didn't Lupin specifically say something along 
those lines? Right after Harry's "You betrayed my parents!" line, Lupin says it 
was Peter who did that, not Sirius. Then when Peter turns up, there's more 
discussion of it, including the whole "you should have realized if Voldemort didn't 
kill you, we would." line. AND of course there's the foreshadowing with 
Trelawny's prophecy of "he who betrayed his friends".
