Awarapan - Emraan Hashmi (2007) - Queen's Road Central

Kabir, now in charge of Shivam's part of the business/responsibilities, has been tasked with tracking down Reema's boyfriend, Bilal, and tracks him down on Queen's Road Central next to the old Queen's Theatre. More or less the same location as in this post. He runs to Duddell Street when they finally catch up with him in the car.

Snowden - Joseph Gordon-Levitt (2016) - Queen's Theatre, Central

Here's a brief shot that really niggled me. The film makers obviously went to a lot of trouble to stay true to the real story by filming in and around The Mira Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. Why then, for a later scene, did they chuck in a piece of old stock footage of a building that wasn't even around by the time the Snowden story was actually playing out in real life?

The shot in question is a quick snippet illustrating how Snowden's revelations are being broadcast around the world. So the film makers cut to a quick scene of an outdoor TV screen showing his interview. The problem is that the screen is attached to the side of a rather famous building that was unfortunately demolished and redeveloped circa 2007. It's the old Queen's Theatre on Queen's Road Central.
