Rich and Famous - Chow Yun Fat (1987) - Fanling Highway, Kwu Tung

The rather violent denouement to the film takes place on the side of a road embankment somewhere in the New Territories as Yung tries to finish off the newly married couple. This was filmed on a stretch of the New Territories Circular Road (Fanling Highway section) just outside of Fanling. In the film the embankment (thisis the one on the north side of the road) is just a grassy slope in the film, but these days it is covered with mature tree growth. The section we are on is right where the highway goes over the old Castle Peak Road at Kwu Tung. The view inthe background of the top images is looking east back towards Choi Po Court. The last image is looking west towards Ki Lun Shan.
