Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Just before assuming the hosting chores of TV's Hour Magazine, Gary Collins headed the cast of Streets of Hong Kong. An orphaned American male is raised by a kindly, wealthy Chinese gentleman. Problems arise when the American expresses a desire to marry his mentor's daughter. Nancy Kwan costars in this slow-moving meller. You know, it's just possible that Streets of Hong Kong was made quite a few years before its official 1979 release; at least, everyone in the cast looks a lot younger than they were in '79.
