Scenes in the film show the harvesting of tobacco. The farmer refers to it as "cropping ". There are two terms in North Carolina for harvesting, cropping and priming. The use of one term versus the other is determined by an invisible line that runs roughly through the geographical middle of the state from east to west. To the north the term priming is used while cropping is used in the southern half.
"Ross McElwee: As time goes by, my father is beginning to seem less and less real to me in these images. Almost a fictional character. I want so much to reverse this shift, the way in which the reality of him is slipping away. Having this footage doesn't help very much - or, at least, not as much as I thought it would."
"Allan Gurganus: Forbes Magazine and other national periodicals name this state as the great place to move, and I swear the day after the magazine comes out, you can see a difference in traffic patterns. For me, as somebody who grew up connected to a piece of property, albeit one that's now transformed into a trailer park, the idea that you would move to a place because a magazine that you bought for $3.95 *told* you to, is a symptom of such sadness in the culture, I cannot tell you. And it's also gumming up this place for those of us who love it."
