The Seventh Sin - Eleanor Parker (1957) - Hung Shing Temple, Ap Lei Chau

Some more back projection for some scenes in the supposed rural location that Carol and Walter head to. In the background is a rather large temple building and this is the Hung Shing Temple on Ap Lei Chau. It's undergone a fair amount of remodelling recently, but you can see the general shape of the same side from this fleeting glimpse in The World of Suzie Wong, shot 3 years later.

Again, the various scenes involving the characters on-location were filmed with doubles (first image) and then footage of the same area was used for back projection for later scenes (next two images) involving the actors and dialogue. The final image below is another on-location shot filmed by the second unit.
