“THE KING” **
9 p.m., SHO
It’s called “The King,” and its lead character is named Elvis, but it’s not about that Elvis. Played by hunky Gael Garcia Bernal (above), this Elvis is a troubled young man just out of the Navy, who shows up at the doorstep of his father (William Hurt) whom he never knew. Dad is a successful preacher, and to say this reminder of his sinful past isn’t exactly welcome is an understatement. Beware: This 2005 drama has some very disturbing sex and violence.
MPAA rating: R
