La Fine Dell'innocenza - Annie Belle (1976) - Aerial view of Harbour

Next up we have an Italian/UK co-production from the mid-70s. The title is La Fine Dell'innocenza but was released in the English speaking world as either AnnieBlue Belle, and The End of Innocence. It was another of the erotic movies produced by Harry Alan Towers before he moved on to the low budget action movies of the 80s (American Ninja anyone?). The story features French "starlet" Annie Belle (real name Annie Brilland) as a barely-out-of-convent-school teenager who travels to Hong Kong with her sugar daddy (played by the rather illustrious Charlie Fawcett), who pretends to be her real dad. Anyway, there she meets up with a bunch of new friends and...well, the title says it all really.

To kick off the locations I'm using this nice view over Victoria Harbour that shows the reclamation that had been started at the Sheung Wan waterfront. This land eventually became the Sheung Wan firestation and a sewage treatment works.
