This week on the show, we're taking a look at Ghost Dog: the Way of the Samurai, an East-meets-West culture clash, delivering modern-day samurai action with a hip-hop aesthetic. It's the story of a hitman who lives by the code of Bushido, serving his boss with unwavering loyalty, even as his boss tries to kill him following a botched assassination. Directed by celebrated auteur, Jim Jarmusch, this off-beat thriller/comedy comes packing philosophy and firepower in equal measure.
