Robbery (TMC Monday at 3 p.m.). This successful 1967 entertainment, which launched director Peter Yates’ international career, was inspired by the famous 1963 heist of 3 million quid from the Royal Mail bound from Glasgow to London. Stanley Baker stars.

Soldier of Orange (Bravo Wednesday at 8 p.m., Thursday at 1 a.m.). Paul Verhoeven’s splendid, large-scale 1979 Dutch saga about a group of privileged, carefree young men losing their innocence in World War II. Rutger Hauer and Jeroen Krabbe star.

The Comfort of Strangers (Cinemax Friday at 8 p.m.). There may be a hollow feeling to this elegant 1990 Paul Schrader film about a jaded couple (Christopher Walken, Helen Mirren) zeroing in on a younger couple (Natasha Richardson, Rupert Everett) in Venice, Italy.
