WILMINGTON -- A North Carolina State Senator wants to review scripts before issuing tax credits for films made in North Carolina. This comes after controversy about the movie "Hounddog" filmed in Wilmington, which shows child star Dakota Fanning being raped. Sen. Phil Berger of Rockingham County thinks the public has a right to see scripts before the state gives tax credits to films. There are already certain controls on film tax credits. Sen. Berger is currently drafting the initiative.
