Edgar Wright writes:
To end the season a double whammy of British hedonism. Richard E Grant gives the finest drunk performance in all cinema (and from a tee totaller too) and Michael Winterbottom's Madchester opus chronicles the coke and ecstasy laden saga of Factory Records. The former influenced our film in it's whirlwind of a lead, so much so that some have called our new movie 'Withnail And I-Robot'. And the music the latter is frequently at the heart of 'The World's End'.
