Crossing Hennessy - Jacky Cheung (2010) - Tung Tak Pawnshop

 Just opposite from Hair's Way was the Tung Tak Pawnshop. The shot in the film shows Oi Lin and Xu "crossing Hennessy" Road (one of the few times this actually happens in the film) as seen by Loy's mum as she looks on from the hairdressers. In the background you can see the pavement columns of this rather excellent looking buildings which has sadly since been demolished. This was a bit of cultural vandalism on the part of the owners (and the Govt for allowing it) as it was the only remaining curved corner shophouse in existence on Hong Kong Island. Anyway, that's why I thought it worthy of its own place, even if it only appears briefly in the background. For more info see here.
