I don’t think of ‘success and luxury’ when it comes to farming. Long days, hardship and toil are what I think about. As a result the logline is a bit off-putting.
Grandfather: “What do you think paid for this here Rolls Royce? This old farm did. Why is it an old guy like me get’s to date a new Supermodel each week, why it’s because I own this here farm. Do you really want to give up the wine, women and luxury that would go with one day owning this here beet farm, just so you can go to the big city and mingle with those backwards gallery folks?”
As Richiev said.? The notion of farming in Iowa?(or practically anywhere else) being a “luxurious” occupation is? not realistic.
The storyline misses the?realistic, obvious ?and compelling reason his grandfather would try to keep him down on the farm:? for the sake of the family legacy.???His grandfather is too old and infirm to run the farm, his father has already died; he’s the only male heir? left to keep the farm going, keep it in the family.
Consequently, the young man is torn between his dream and duty.
