The Yin and Yang of Mr Go - James Mason (1970) - Lockhart Road, Wanchai

After being duped into believing someone wants to publish his writing, Bridges heads out to celebrate with his new publisher - in reality a US agent. They hit the town in several places including the Ocean Bar that used to be at 88-92 Lockhart Road (thanks to Doug). It's a shame the picture quality isn't any better because I'm a big fan of these old neon signs.

The reason the top picture is rotated is because of Burgess Meredith trying to convey the drunkeness of the night with skewed camera angles.

We also get a quick glimpse of the nearby Neptune Bar sign (75-79 Lockhart Road).

Shatter - Stuart Whitman (1974) - Lockhart Road, Wanchai

Our first glimpse of Peter Cushing (who was, coincidentally, recently recreated via CGI for the Star Wars: Rogue One film) as a rather nasty Hong Kong copper is when he gets out of a car on Lockhart Road in Wanchai. There are some key establishment signs that tell us where we are located. Including the San Francisco Topless bar, Butterfly Club Topless, Boston Bar (was next door to the Butterfly) and Ocean Bar.

For a great collection of Wanchai pictures at around the same era (including some very similar signs seen here) I recommend Doug's extensive collection of slides and bar cards over on Flickr. Links below.
