As a special, for-your-ears-only musical sign off to Empire’s epic celebration of movie music, one of our favourite directors and ace pop-picker Edgar Wright has joined the party. We asked him to put together a playlist of his favourite tracks from the movies. He went away, rifled through his record and film collections, pondered, mused, and, we’d like to think, stroked his chin to a fine point, before returning with this, his ultimate movie playlist. He hopes you enjoy it. We hope so too.
