It's the most famous film never made: Divine Rapture was the Hollywood blockbuster starring Marlon Brando, Debra Winger, and Johnny Depp that was supposed to put Ballycotton in Co Cork on the map.

However, financial troubles saw the ill-fated film canned just two weeks into filming in East Cork in July 1995.
