4 p.m. TCM ‘Movie: A Fistful of Dollars’

A fistful of dollars might not get you much these days, but while he was playing a television cowboy on “Rawhide,” Clint Eastwood used a hiatus to go overseas and earn more money with director Sergio Leone on this 1964 “spaghetti Western.” It’s a remake of the Japanese classic “Yojimbo” that changed the course of Eastwood’s career by making him a superstar as the silent and deadly Man With No Name, who positions his poncho between two warring families.

6 p.m. LIFE ‘Movie: Stalked by a Reality Star’

Kendra is just a teenager, so she lies about her age to get into a Hollywood party, where she meets Brad, a handsome reality TV star. She soon discovers that Brad isn’t quite as charming as he first appears, so she tries to reject him. Unfortunat­ely, Brad’s not big on rejection, and his obsession with Kendra drives him to try anything — including dating her widowed mother — to stay close to her. Cynthia Preston, Scott William Wilson and Emily Bader star in this thriller.

6 p.m. STARZ ‘Movie: Churchill’

The role of Winston Churchill is catnip for great actors, and not without reason: John Lithgow won an Emmy playing the British prime minister in “The Crown,” and Gary Oldman is a current Oscar front runner as best actor for his performanc­e as Churchill in “Darkest Hour.” This 2017 World War II drama from Jonathan Teplitzky finds Brian Cox undertakin­g the role, with Miranda Richardson, John Slattery, Julian Wadham And Danny Webb in the capable supporting cast.
