Tomris Laffly

Harper's Bazaar

A beautifully woven tale on the constructive ways that life and art reflect, propel, and imitate each other, offering human beings curious enough to welcome artistic pursuits into their lives a path forward.

Though uneasy with acting, Kupferer's Dan finds comfort in the theater as the themes of the play help him connect to both his aspiring-actress daughter and the son he’s lost.

“Ghostlight” is indeed about grief. But not the buzzy kind, the kind that’s easy to define and simple to manage.

The tears come from as many moments of warm, humane joy as they do from the film’s sadder scenes.

Screen Zealots

Kupferer gives a particularly powerful and understated performance, and it’s so affecting to watch as his character not only finds a place where he belongs, but also one where he can finally feel.

[Dan] identifies with the characters in such a way as to stretch believability – if not for the well-placed ambiguities and subtle reveals of Kelly O’Sullivan’s sensitive script.

Rated: 3.5/5
