  • Blake Howard

Join host Blake Howard and a handpicked team of film experts as they ambush John Frankenheimer’s RONIN (1998). Over 12 episodes, they'll explore the mysteries of the briefcase MacGuffin, praise co-writer David Mamet’s tough, balletic dialogue, and break down the film’s iconic action and chase sequences. Tune in because, as Sam says, 'Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt. That's the first thing they teach you.'

You accept it and move on. That could be lesson number three, Bilge.

Scene 12: 1.45.12-1.57.28
