My Cousin Vinny (1992)

From director Jonathan Lynn comes the rare courtroom comedy. My Cousin Vinny stars Joe Pesci, Marisa Tomei, Fred Gwynne, and…Ralph Macchio? The cast chemistry is exquisite, the writing is hilarious, and Marisa Tomei won an Oscar for her performance. The question isn’t “Will the Karate Kid be put to death?”, the question is “How will Joe Pesci get him out of this?”

Shogun – S01E09 – Crimson Sky

It’s a slick episode of Shogun. Mariko, played by Anna Sawai, has been a stand out character since the pilot. In this episode she unleashes her full power and charges full steam ahead into battle.
