In one of the more bizarre locations from this film, the reunion between George and Emy takes place on the old typhoon shelter breakwater in Yau Ma Tei. The only way to get here was by boat so I guess the crew just wanted a very inaccessible place to prevent passers-by ruining the scene? The whole area has of course since been reclaimed and the location below now corresponds with the southern end of Olympic MTR station. In the second image, you can see the curved brickwork of the circular northern tip of the breakwater. There is a modern breakwater for the new shelter, but it's located 600 metres west of where the original one was and appears to be just made from piled rocks rather than concrete.
