Movie Review Ghostlight

Ghostlight 

Directed by Kelly O’Sullivan

Written by Kelly O’Sullivan 

Starring Keith Kupferer, Dolly De Leon, Katherine Kupferer, Tara Mallen 

Release Date June 14th, 2024 

Published January 13th, 2025

Ghostlight stars Keith Kupferer as Dan Mueller, a construction worker and family man recovering from a terrible family tragedy. Dan’s son has taken his own life and now, Dan and his wife, Sharon (Tara Mallen), and their daughter, Daisy (Katherine Kupferer), are involved in a lawsuit with a family related to the son’s death. The stress of the lawsuit is evident in Daisy acting out at school and at home and how Dan’s closed off emotions are affecting his marriage. 

The plot of Ghostlight begins to unfold after Dan has a blow up on a construction site. The outburst was witnessed by Rita (Dolly De Leon), an actress at a community theater across the street from the construction site. Rita approaches Dan and draws him into the theater. Rita thinks Dan could use an outlet for his anger and that this would make him a terrific actor. Dan, of course, is skeptical but he’s also intrigued. He takes part in a table read for the production of Romeo and Juliet and then comes back for another run through, and another, eventually joining the play in secret.
