In remembrance of Joe Don Baker who died just a week or so ago (7th May 2025) here is another one of those pandemic finds that I am gradually getting around to posting.
The location of "Finzie's Bar" in the film was Arthur Street in Yau Ma Tei. Most of the buildings seen in the movie have since been replaced including the location of the bar entrance which was in one of the buildings directly opposite Hi Lung Lane. However, one recognisable building is still around and that is located at the north end of the street on the right hand side. It's #2 Man Ming Lane and you can see the side of the last image. It was built in 1952 which is very old for a Hong Kong residential building.
