The Father Clements Story (NBC Sunday at 7 p.m.) is a substantial fact-based 1987 drama about a black priest, played well by Louis Gossett Jr., who adopts a teen-ager.

Although the 1988 TV movie Red River (CBS Sunday at 9 p.m.) doesn’t equal the 1948 Howard Hawks original, it’s well made and acted. James Arness has John Wayne’s role as a trail boss and Bruce Boxleitner has the sensitive Montgomery Clift part.

The 1985 Wallenberg: A Hero’s Story (Channel 13 Monday at 8 p.m., completed Tuesday at 8 p.m.) is one of the better depictions of relating to the Nazi slaughter, with Richard Chamberlain in a good performance as the unlikely Swedish diplomat who effected the rescue of more than 120,000 Hungarian Jews as the war was drawing to a close.

The Return of a Man Called Horse (KTLA Wednesday at 8 p.m.) decidedly superior to the original, finds Richard Harris as an English lord returning to the Dakota Territory for more adventures.

Prince made his 1984 film debut in the lurid, overwrought Purple Rain (Channel 13 Wednesday at 8 p.m., again Saturday at 5 p.m.), a semi-autobiographical account of a black-Italian Minneapolis rock musician.

Elia Kazan’s memorable 1952 Viva Zapata! (Channel 5 Thursday at 7:30 p.m.) stars Marlon Brando as the Mexican revolutionary; also featured are Jean Peters and Anthony Quinn.

Robert Altman’s 1976 Buffalo Bill and the Indians (Channel 5 Friday at 8 p.m.) is an alternately pretentious and tedious parable on the condescending, exploitative and treacherous treatment of Native Americans by whites, featuring a demythologized Buffalo Bill (Paul Newman) and pulp writer Ned Buntline (Burt Lancaster, deftly ironic).

The entertaining 1981 Outland (Channel 13 Friday at 8 p.m.) is quite literally “High Noon” in outer space with a splendid Sean Connery as an intergalactic marshal.

The 1976 Car Wash (KTLA Saturday at 6 p.m.) is a high-energy, high-entertainment, raucously observed slice of life set in a central L.A. car wash.

Graham Greene’s morality tale The Tenth Man (KCAL at 8 p.m.), in which Anthony Hopkins plays a Frenchman jailed by Nazis and who bribed another man to take his place the night before his is to be executed, squanders a promising plot and a strong cast.

So Fine (KCOP Saturday at 8 p.m.) is a rowdy 1981 screwball comedy in which a tweedy English prof (Ryan O’Neal) becomes caught up in the problems of his garment manufacturer father (Jack Warden).

The late Michael Powell and the late Emeric Pressburger’s 1947 lush color film of Rumer Godden’s Black Narcissus (Channel 28 Saturday at 10:40 p.m.) verges on the outrageous in its evocation of incipient corruption and sexual hysteria as a group of nuns, headed by Deborah Kerr, attempts to turn an ancient Indian harem, pitched on an incredibly high cliff, into a convent.
