Edgar Wright
Edgar is a talented filmmaker, whose work I admire. I saw his movie Baby Driver in the past and it didn't resonate with me. It's fun and entertaining but I didn't think much of it.

My favourite Edgar's movies:
- Shaun of the Dead (2004)
- Hot Fuzz (2007)
- Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)
- The World's End (2013)
- Baby Driver (2017)
- Last night in Soho (2021)
