Mother Ghost
Category:
Narrative Feature 1hr 23min
Director: Rich Thorne
Keith Bennets overly protective
mother passed away a year ago, and up until this
morning he was perfectly
fine with that. Keith (Mark Thompson) has been
distant of late and his wife (Dana Delaney) begs
him to get
some help, which he dismisses as nagging. One night,
his deceased mothers jewelry has mysteriously appeared
on his bathroom sink, the same jewelry that she
was wearing when she was buried. That's the last
straw,
his wife has had it. She's convinced it's all in
Keith's head. 'Deal with this or I'm taking our
son and leaving', his wife tells him. Keith winds
up
on the phone with a popular radio Psychiatrist
(Kevin Pollak) who digs deep into Keith's life and
problems.
Keith is forced to deal with the things that he
has shoved to the side and in doing so, he finds
a new
attitude and a new man. The entire film takes place
over a twenty four hour period. Is his mothers
jewelry all in Keith's head or has she truly come
back to
help her son this one last time as MOTHER GHOST.
