The beautiful state of Missouri has actually been the setting of quite a few films. Gone Girl, Winter’s Bone, and Paper Moon, just to name a few. It’s not hard to believe it, with all the different types of geography, cities, small towns and large areas dedicated to the preservation of nature. All of these beautiful photos could easily be the backdrop for a multitude of movie scenes.

What was your favorite? I would love to see St. Mary’s featured in a scary movie. And the sweeping views in the rural areas are unbelievably beautiful. What do you think? Share in the comments below.
