Art Deco 1910-1939
The Paris exhibition of modern decorative arts in 1925 marked the beginning of the powerful artistic movement which came to be known as Art Deco. By the 1930s cars, ships, radios, cocktail shakers, juke-boxes and appartment blocks looked like works of art. A huge new exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London reflects on Art Deco around the world.
Art Deco 1910-1939 continues until 20 July 2003
Personality
The latest book by Andrew O'Hagan is the story of a young Scottish girl who becomes a chart-topping poppet after appearing on the TV talent show Opportunity Knocks. Although Maria is fictional, she closely resembles the late Lena Zavaroni.

The Rules of Attraction
Quentin Tarantino's former writing partner Roger Avary has written and directed this film based on the book by Bret Easton Ellis, the author of the notorious American Psycho. The book is set on an America campus where all the students seem to be taking a course called Depravity 101. The film flashes back into the lives of three class members as they head towards the ultimate student bash - The End Of The World Party.
The Rules of Attraction opened around the UK on 28 March 2003.
The Planman
In his first TV role since Cracker, the psychologist with a sophisticated understanding of the criminal mind, Robbie Coltrane again crosses the boundaries between crook and cop. In The Planman he's Jack Lennox, a Glaswegian QC who enjoys pointing out to his criminal clients how they could have got away with it. Putting theory into practice, Jack takes refuge from middle-age boredom by alternating the job of barrister with that of criminal Mr Big.
The Planman starts on ITV1 at 2100 on Monday, 31 March 2003.
Newsnight Review, BBC Two's weekly cultural round-up, follows Newsnight on Friday evenings at 2300 GMT.
