An Impudent Girl (French: L'Effrontée) is a 1985 French film directed by Claude Miller. It stars Charlotte Gainsbourg, who won the César Award for Most Promising Actress, and Bernadette Lafont, who won the César Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. It is a loose adaptation of the novel Frankie Addams (French title of Carson McCullers's The Member of the Wedding).

The film won the Louis Delluc Prize, and received César nominations for Best Film, Best Director, Most Promising Actor, Best Original Screenplay or Adaptation, Best Costume Design and Best Sound. The song Sarà perché ti amo by Ricchi e Poveri is featured in the movie, playing in the end credits. An english version named Rock it Rock it Tonight was also released, most likely to promote the movie.
