Police Story - Jackie Chan (1985) - Shatin Pass Road, Tsz Wan Shan

After his disaster in court, in the HK version of the film Ka Kui is given some punishment by having to man Sha Tau Kok police station. In fact the location we see Jackie at doesn't look like Sha Tau Kok police station and the use of that name - using a fake signboard - was more likely to emphasise how far out in the sticks he was for the local audience. The scene is a slight comedic break from the main story and I don't remember it being part of the film when it was given an international release, but I could be wrong.

Anyway, back in the main thread and Ka Kui goes to meet May following the embarrassment that was his court appearance. Whilst with her he gets a call from his informant telling him Salina is being held hostage at an address. Whilst chatting to May, his crappy car rolls down the hill and takes out a phone box where he was just on the phone to his contact.

The fake phone box was located on the pavement in front of a retaining wall that holds the local CLP offices, just down from the junction with Tsz Wan Shan Road. You can see in the second image that the car has just turned the corner from Tsz Wan Shan Road.

Shatter - Stuart Whitman (1974) - Tsz Wan Shan, Kowloon

Here's a long standing puzzler from Shatter that has just been solved by Thomas, but really given its position in the film it should've been easy for me to get. It involves some scenes prior to the car chase scene that ends up at the top of Shatin Pass Road at Lion Pavilion.

It turns out that film geography was spot on this time (for a change) and this sequence, just prior to the scenes shot at Shatin Pass Road, was filmed along Tsz Wan Shan Road...in reality just down the hill from the junction with Shatin Pass Road.

The estate has since been rebuilt but Thomas has provided some links with photos showing how the estate used to look from the HK Memory website and a personal blog. A big thanks to Thomas for the identification.
