Flash Point - Donnie Yen (2007) - St Teresa's Hospital, Prince Edward Road

We were here just a few posts (and 50+ years) ago. The original building has long since gone and replaced by a much larger complex. This is the hospital Wilson is supposedly taken to following his accident. The caption in Chinese on the screen capture says "3 months later".

The Guiding Light - Bruce Lee (1953) - St Teresa's Hospital, Kowloon

It appears that the hospital in which Tin-sang was born is St Teresa's. After Ah Ngo alights from the bus along Prince Edward Road, we are shown an establishing shot of the old hospital building. The hospital itself is still around but this old building has long gone and been replaced by a much bigger and more modern version. Coincidentally, this is also one of the hospitals where Lee was sent in later life following his May 10th 1973 collapse and subsequent revival at Baptist Hospital, Lee was sent to St Teresa's for further check ups to try and determine the cause.
