Set in 1660 when France's King Louis XIV had a private army of elite soldiers known as Musketeers, the new movie "Le Femme Musketeer: All for One" (8 p.m., Hallmark Channel) focuses on just one of them.

Anton Yelchin ("Hearts in Atlantis") plays the son and title character in "Jack" (8 p.m., Showtime).
