If you’re still even interested in watching this year’s Oscars after last night's SAG Awards, expect the same three definite bathroom breaks and you won’t have to miss any of the commercials.

-- Is Diane Keaton aware that the Film Society of Lincoln Center’s gala in her honor this spring will include selected highlights? Here’s what she said to the Post regarding some of her films: “I never look at those movies. Why would I? I don't want to see. What am I gonna do, look back?”
