Ballad of a Small Player - Colin Farrell (2025) - Unnamed Side Street by Hotel Fortuna

Following the gambler's suicide (shot in Hong Kong), Dao-ming runs away and leaves via a side street. This time we are back in Macau on an unnamed sidestreet next to the Fortuna. Dao-ming leaves via a exit into this side street of the south side of the hotel and Doyle follows her and flags down a taxi. As I've mentioned before, Streetview imagery in Macau hasn't been updated since 2008 but the imagery shows the same place looking bit scruffier in real life. It's most likely had a bit of a spring clean since 2008 though. In case the location label (auto generated at the bottom of the post) snaps away (edit: yes, it snapped away), this is the small road immediately south of Hotel Fortuna.

Ballad of a Small Player - Colin Farrell (2025) - Praça de D. Afonso Henriques, Macau

We were in this area just recently for Expired, the common identifier being the Hotel Fortuna neon sign in the top right of the image below. 

I'm sure there are a few more images I can pin to this location but without physically being there, it's hard to get a hold of current locations in Macau thanks to the extremely outdated and relatively poor coverage of Streetview.

The Last Time I Saw Macao - João Rui Guerra da Mata (2012) - Rua de Cantão, Macau

Da Mata is asked by Cindy to meet her friend, A-Kan, outside a sex shop on one of the small lanes leading off Rua de Cantão. However, he gets lost and misses the rendezvous. This is the same street that Johnny Hallyday walked down a few years earlier in Vengeance. The Hotel Fortuna, also located here, is seen in a later sequence as Da Mata continues his fruitless search for Cindy.

Vengeance - Johnny Hallyday (2009) - Rua de Cantão, Macau

As Hallyday stumbles about trying to find leads in his family's murder case, we see him outside the Hotel Fortuna along Rua de Cantão. He then crosses the road and heads down the nameless shopping lane opposite the hotel.
