About Cape Girardeau, Missouri
Cape Girardeau is a city in Cape Girardeau and Scott counties in the U.S. state of Missouri. The "Cape" in the city name referred to a rock promontory overlooking the Mississippi River; it was later destroyed by railroad construction. As early as 1765, a bend in the Mississippi River, about 60 miles (97 km) south of the French village of Ste. Scenes for the film Gone Girl (2014), which is set in the fictional North Carthage, Missouri, were shot in Cape Girardeau. (Wikipedia)
