Hot Fuzz Page #10

Synopsis: Top London cop, PC Nicholas Angel is good. Too good. And to stop the rest of his team looking bad, he is reassigned to the quiet town of Sandford. He is paired with Danny Butterman, who endlessly questions him on the action lifestyle. Everything seems quiet for Angel, until two actors are found decapitated. It is called an accident, but Angel isn't going to accept that, especially when more and more people turn up dead. Angel and Danny clash with everyone, whilst trying to uncover the truth behind the mystery of the apparent "accidents".

We don't want any more bloodshed.

Frank, this whole thing started

because you lost somebody you loved.

Don't expect me to believe

you'd let it end the same way.

I'll tell you how this is gonna end!

I feel like I should say something smart.

You don't have to say anything at all.

Satisfactory conclusion

to the whole operation.

Now, my perfect Sunday would begin with...

What do you say, Nicholas?

We... We...

We have been trying to reach you for days.

- Yeah, well, I've been kind of busy.

- We need you back.

The figures have gone a little squiffy

in your absence, it has to be said.

Come back to London.

Sandford's hardly a fitting place

for such an exceptional officer.

Yeah, well, the thing is, sir.

I kind of like it here.

Besides, we have to do

a considerable amount of paperwork.

- F***'s sake, Nick, this is gonna take ages.

- Yeah, it's gonna take all night.

Well, good job

we've got the manpower, Andy?

Well, official vocab guidelines state

that we say "staffing," not "manpower,"

'cause "manpower's" a bit sexist.

You don't mind a bit

of manpower do you, Doris?

Oh, dirty bastard!

Andy!

You cheeky f***er!

You know what you are?

A bloody busybody!

No!

Oh, God, no!

Danny!

Danny!

Oh, God.

Hold on, Danny, just hold on.

Hold on, it's gonna be fine.

It's gonna be fine.

Just hang on, hang on!

Everything's gonna be fine.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Everything's gonna be just fine.

Hope these are okay.

Yeah. They're lovely.

- Any officers near the church?

- Go ahead, Doris.

Chief, we've had a report

of some hippy types

messing with the recycling bins

at the supermarket.

- Leave it with us.

- Righto.

Sergeant Butterman,

little hand says it's time to rock and roll.

Bring the noise.

Edgar Wright

Edgar Howard Wright (born 18 April 1974) is an English director, screenwriter and producer. He began making independent short films before making his first feature film A Fistful of Fingers (1995). Wright created and directed the comedy series Asylum in 1996, written with David Walliams. After directing several other television shows, Wright directed the sitcom Spaced (1999–2001), which aired for two series and starred frequent collaborators Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. In 2004, Wright directed the first film in the Three Flavours Cornetto, the horror comedy Shaun of the Dead, starring Pegg and Frost. The film was co-written with Pegg—as were the next two entries in the trilogy, Hot Fuzz (2007) and The World's End (2013), which Wright directed and also starred the pair. In 2010, Wright co-wrote, produced, and directed the comedy action film Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. Along with Joe Cornish and Steven Moffat, he co-wrote Steven Spielberg's The Adventures of Tintin (2011). Wright and Cornish co-wrote the screenplay for the Marvel Cinematic Universe film Ant-Man in 2015, which Wright intended to direct but abandoned, citing creative differences. His latest film, the action comedy Baby Driver, was released in 2017. Wright has also directed numerous music videos, including The Bluetones' "Keep the Home Fires Burning" (2000), The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster's "Psychosis Safari" (2002), Mint Royale's "Blue Song" (2002), Pharrell Williams' "Gust of Wind" (2014), and Beck’s "Colors" (2018). more…
