Thelonius Monk: Straight, No Chaser (Bravo Sunday at 11 a.m. and early Monday at midnight) is an outstanding, full-scale 1988 documentary by Charlotte Zwerin on the jazz innovator.

Au Revoir les Enfants (Bravo Monday at 5 and 10 p.m.), Louis Malle’s superb, semiautobiographical 1987 film, is a tale of innocence and betrayal set in a French provincial Catholic boarding school during the Nazi occupation.

Freaks (TMC Wednesday at 9:05 a.m.) is the 1932 Tod Browning classic that asks us to consider who are the true freaks--those who are sideshow attractions or those who exploit them.
