Les Anges Gardiens - Gerard Depardieu (1995) - Shung Tak Street, Tai Po Market

In the ensuing chase that started at the fake airport, the action quickly moves to Tai Po. Of course, the flow of the sequence implies that we are somewhere in Kowloon, but the actual footage was filmed in the small streets of Tai Po Market. This following shot was filmed in a place that may be familiar to a few people even if they don't realise it. It's the corner of Shung Tak Street and Yan Hing Street - directly opposite what is now the main entrance to the excellent Tai Po railway Museum. In fact this is the same view you will see when you walk down the steps from the museum entrance there. Believe it or not but that shop is still there.
