Spy Game - Robert Redford (2001) - Victoria Harbour Part 1, Hong Kong

It's a slow time for my chosen selection of films at the moment, so maybe it's time to dig out some classics. Case in point is Tony Scott's Spy Game released in 2001. This really isn't a made in Hong Kong film at all, there are really only three very brief snippets of Hong Kong - all of them essentially establishing sequences that set the scene for what follows. What follows is usually David Hemming's character, supposedly base in Hong Kong and speaking from what is purported to be the US Consulate.

The first establishing sequence we see involves the camera zooming along the harbour from the east towards a building in Wanchai, Elizabeth House in Causeway Bay.
