From KCRW Santa Monica and KCRW.com, this is The Treatment.

Welcome to The Treatment. I'm Elvis Mitchell. My guest, writer-director Edgar Wright, has been here for, with the exception of his first film, Sean of the Dead, everything he has done.

He was here for Hot Fots.

He was here for, what's that little movie called?

Oh, yes, Scott Pillogram.

And now he's here for his newest film, The World's End.

I think I was also here for the space DVD as well.

sort of aware of that of like the what people perceive the Brits to be like. And I think it's

because it's about 75% true. But you know, there's something that it's just a huge part of

the culture. And especially when you're're younger there's definitely that peer pressure
