Abstract:
With the twentieth anniversary of the film Bull Durham arriving, the author can’t understand why Durham, its residents, and baseball fans love the film. The author describes why the film inaccurately portrays minor league baseball, why it is an unoriginal, poorly cast, and poorly written movie, and how the film did not represent life in Durham.

Screen Gems studios in Wilmington currently has five film and TV productions filming including, The Marc Pease Experience, Bolden, Nights in Rodanthe, Cabin Fever 2, and One Tree Hill. The increase in production has also brought jobs back in the industry.

Abstract:
The state’s new film incentive package benefits low-budget films as much as it does Hollywood blockbuster films. The General Assembly set a low threshold for the film incentive so that the state could assist local, independent, and low budget filmmakers. This will cause more films to be produced in the state and may help keep students in the state who study at universities in North Carolina. Additionally, more jobs will be created and the industry will continue to grow.
