Les Anges Gardiens - Gerard Depardieu (1995) - Nam Ning Street, Aberdeen

After dropping his new charge off at the boys' boarding school (i.e. Penha Church in Macau), Depardieu runs outside to grab a cab to the bank (because he has his friend's safety deposit key and is about to find out why all the gangsters are after him). Some more geographical shenanigans arise when he suddenly appears back in Hong Kong and stops the cab on Nam Ning Street in Aberdeen town centre. The archway in the background marks the entrance to the commercial arcade/plaza that runs through the middle of the Aberdeen Centre residential development (it's called Aberdeen Square on Google maps).

Hi Phil,

That was the time when there were still Department stores in Aberdeen. The Isetan was one despite just a very small one selling clothings and fasion items. There used to be a Wing On store nearby, taking up most of store floors of Phase 2 of Aberdeen Centre.
