Yes back then, and now more recently the state of North Carolina to bring in cash flow to the state and provide jobs they created an incentive program that gave back 20% of whatever the studio paid. So if they spent 5 million the state of NC would give back 1 million. It's the same for Atlanta which has become a major place for filming these days.
