Narazumono - Ken Takakura (1964) - Haiphong Road, Tsim Sha Tsui

This scene occurs earlier in the film when Minami has just escaped arrest at the Empress Hotel. As Minami walks around Kowloon trying not to look conspicuous, he wanders along the eastern part of Haiphong Road. In the film the shot is edited into several others taken elsewhere including up by the Market Street location I posted a few days ago. Anyway, the trees on the other side of the road are the ones that lined (and still line) what was the southern section of the Whitfield barracks perimeter (now Kowloon Park).
