...research parks - where civility deteriorates and darkness rises. In Kingdom Come, his latest and perhaps most unsettling work yet, Ballard exposes a particularly nasty cesspool of social pathology: the shopping mall. First, a clarification. Confusingly, Ballard is perhaps best known for Empire of the Sun, a surprisingly sunny best seller based on his World War II boyhood in a Japanese internment camp in Shanghai - and the inspiration for Steven Spielberg's 1987 feel-good movie of that name, starring Christian Bale. But Ballard is also famous for a more sinister novel, Crash, about car-wreck aficionados in outer London, which...
...everywhere in this year’s designer collections. It decorates the outside of pockets and the tops of handbags. It shows up on the lining and the cuffs of pretty much every coat that I saw modeled for the season.

...TUESDAYS, 8 P.M. E.T.; PREMIERES OCT. 3 You don't need to know a quarterback from a halfback--I'm told those are football terms--to appreciate this drama about a high school team in gridiron-obsessed Texas. The fictionalized version of the based-on-a-nonfiction-best-seller movie (directed by Peter Berg, who co-produces and directs here) has the same quick-cut look, crisp dialogue and bone-crunching game scenes. And the series promises to get deeper into the lives of the players, who are treated like gods and movie stars--as long as they win. Kyle...
