Filmmaker James Khanlarian On The 5 Things To Create A Highly Successful Career in TV and Film
"We’re very happy with it. It’s based on a novel by K. Stephens. ...As some people know, but I should explain it, [The Ghost Trap] is a lobster trap, it’s more or less a wire cage, and it sinks to the bottom of the ocean, but it’s attached to a buoy. ... But if for some reason that string is cut and the lobster trap is separated from the buoy, you can never find that lobster trap again, very often with a lobster trapped inside. And so that’s considered a ghost trap. It’s symbolic in our movie, in our story for the thing that has been lost."
