Jake Pitre

Jake Pitre is a journalist living in Ottawa. His writing can also be found at Movie Mezzanine, Sound On Sight and elsewhere. He doesn't think filmmaking can get any better than the "Everytime" sequence in Spring Breakers and he listens exclusively to Lana Del Rey.

The year is now more than half over, but in terms of the film industry, things are still just getting started. Whether that means catching up on movies into the first few months of the next year or the gluttony of high-calibre releases in the last few months of the year, it’s difficult to properly establish the actual midpoint.
