Dead or Alive: Final - Shô Aikawa (2002) - Mei King Mansion, To Kwa Wan

For that gritty future Yokohama look, the director went to a location that has been seen quite a bit on films in this blog: Mei King Mansion.

Snowden - Joseph Gordon-Levitt (2016) - Mei King Mansion, To Kwa Wan

We've seen this part of To Kwa Wan several times now. It was last seen here when I was finding Ghost in the Shell locations, and is just a short hop from one of the large buildings used in the Transformers movie.

In this movie it is the location where Snowden's refugee protectors are living. Snowden was famously sheltered by various families throughout his stay here, all of which were refugee asylum seekers who risked their lives and futures to provide him a hiding place. They were all clients of the Human Rights lawyer, Robert Tibbo (played by Ben Chaplin), who has since been effectively forced out of the territory (recent NYT article here). Coincidentally, it seems that all of the people/families who helped shelter Snowden have had their applications for asylum denied - in this modern age of HK Govt pettiness, it seems they are paying the price for highlighting HK's refugee problems to the world.

Yellowthread Street (TV Series) - Bruce Payne (1990) - I Feng Mansion, To Kwa Wan

Another discovery from looking again at Yellowthread Street has revealed this location from the sixth episode, Fan Tan Man. It's I Feng Mansion in To Kwa Wan and by the looks at it we are looking through the gap between Blocks C and D towards the front of Mei King Mansion facing Lok Shan Road

Ghost in the Shell - Scarlett Johansson (2017) - Mei King Mansion, To Kwa Wan

Following the shootout scene when the sanitation workers are manipulated into attacking Dr Ouelet (Juliet Binoche), the surviving attacker boots up his camouflage jacket and parkours his way across various obstacles to escape. It's a scene that is an almost direct copy of one from the anime film version. A couple of the brief snippets from this scene were filmed over in To Kwa Wan at a building called Mei King Mansion and the road in front called Mei Kwong Street.

The last picture shows us looking back down towards Mei King mansion from Mei Kwong Street, with major running along the roof of Mei King Mansion.
