Narazumono - Ken Takakura (1964) - The Peak, Hong Kong

Unfortunately the plot (in Japanese with French subtitles) was a bit lost on me, but I get the feeling that the Japanese lady is a drug runner who is getting Minami to do some of her dirty work without him realising. She is in cahoots with a Chinese man who she goes to the Peak to meet with. We get a few shots of the Peak Cafe (still going) as well as some other shots of the area including a quick glimpse of the Victoria Gap Lookout that once stood at the bottom of Mount Austin Road (it was demolished in the 70s, probably to make way for the previous version of the Peak Tower), followed by a trip back down the mountainside on the Peak Tram.
