Hard Boiled - Chow Yun Fat (1992) - Portland Street, Mongkok

The beginning of the film also has a montage of various neon shop signs so I thought it might be interesting to feature a few here. The first one is this collection of signs that baffled me until I squinted and saw the sign for the old Rex Theatre in the background of image two. This places us on Portland Street not far from the location of the teahouse shootout scene. The cinema closed in 1996 and I believe the space is currently occupied by the MPM Mall.
