21 Movies That Were Filmed in St. Louis

St. Louis is not a hot spot for Hollywood to choose as a filming location (mostly because we don’t offer the large tax credits to film production companies that so many other cities do), but we do offer beautiful green space and gorgeous buildings, so sometimes film crews end up here, anyway.

This is a collection of movies that were filmed at least partially in St. Louis, with some of them being entirely focused on St. Louis history or locations.
