The 1961 movie The Hoodlum Priest, starring Don Murray, depicted the life of Dismas Clark. Many scenes were filmed in St. Louis, including scenes on Produce Row--which still looks the same today--and the Mill Creek neighborhood as it was being torn down. Several scenes were filmed downtown in front of a strip joint and sleazy bar which were later torn down in the 1960s to revitalize downtown St. Louis. Father Clark died in 1963, an exhausted man. In the weeks before his death, he had worked hard in a futile fight to save a young man from Missouri’s gas chamber.Harry J. Cargas, “The Hoodlum Priest: R.I.P., The Story of Fr. Dismas Clark, S.J.” Homiletic and Pastoral Review 68: 328-34.
