   It's an Irish film with mostly Irish actors, but it was mostly filmed in the   
   Isle of Man, an island close to Ireland, perhaps for tax breaks.   
      
   Tullymore is a quite a common name in Ireland. There are about 20 places in   
   Ireland called An Tulaigh Mhór (Tullymore), or variations. It means 'the big   
   hillock'.    
      
   I travel to Ireland quite a lot and have been to both. The scenery in Ireland   
   is very similar to this. In fact, in my opinion, far superior. If you want to   
   get something close to this, the best places to go are all along the west   
   coast, along the Wild    
   Atlantic Way. Perhaps the best places like this are on Acaill island,   
   especially An Choim. Also the south-west, near Dún Chaoin and An Daingean.
