Doug interviews directors Kelly O'Sullivan and Alex Thompson and they share insights into their latest film, "Ghostlight." The story follows Dan, a despondent middle-aged construction worker grappling with a family tragedy. In an attempt to cope, Dan joins a local theater's amateur production of "Romeo and Juliet," finding solace and unexpected camaraderie among the misfit band of actors.
The directors revealed how they drew from personal experiences and a love for theater to craft a narrative that highlights the healing power of art and community. Ultimately, "Ghostlight" is a tender drama that underscores the importance of community and the cathartic potential of artistic expression.
