Bamboo Gods and Iron Men - James Iglehart (1974) - Aberdeen, Hong Kong

Next up is a trip to Aberdeen. The main character, Cal Jefferson (Iglehart), jumps into the rather gross water of 1970s Aberdeen Harbour to rescue a mute, Charley (played by Chiquito), who then attaches himself to the pair in some sort of life-debt scenario. We get to see some scenes around the old waterfront (now Wu Nam Street bus terminus) as well as some shots of the floating restaurants and waterfront pontoons.

After saving Charley'slife, the pair jump in a cab and decide to go back to their hotel. The cab is parked on the corner of the old Praya Road. The small cluster of shrines on the left (see below) are still there in some form or another.Weirdly though, as Charley runs towards them it's quite obvious that short scene was filmed elsewhere - I'm not sure why though.
