Looking for Mr. Goodbar. Diane Keaton plunges into a new area in her line of work--a leading role in a serious drama about a nympho working girl--and she can look back on the departure with satisfaction.

"I went to my housemaster," says Cornwell, "and he said, 'Well, this is the moment of choice; you choose between God and the Devil...
...after you read them you're still hungry." As for the newly restyled Times (circ. 854,000), Saffir calls it "successful, fat, stuffy" and alleges that the paper has perpetrated a virtual news blackout on the birth of its new morning competitor.
