Being Twenty (Italian: Avere vent'anni, also known as To Be Twenty) is a 1978 Italian erotic-drama film directed by Fernando Di Leo and starring Gloria Guida and Lilli Carati. It is probably the most censored and controversial film directed by Di Leo.
The title draws inspiration from a phrase by Paul Nizan, taken from the book Aden Arabia, which is used in the opening credits of the film: "I was twenty, I won't let anyone say those are the best years of your life"
