L'Étudiante (English: The Student) is a 1988 French romantic comedy film directed by Claude Pinoteau and starring Sophie Marceau, Vincent Lindon and Élisabeth Vitali. Written by Claude Pinoteau and Danièle Thompson, the film is about an ambitious teaching student, busy preparing for her final exams, whose studies are interrupted by a passionate affair with a jazz musician. The film was released to French theaters on October 10th, 1988 and sold 1,583,067 admissions in France.

Twenty-one-year-old Valentine (Sophie Marceau) is a part-time teacher preparing for her all-important final teaching examinations. She meets Edouard (Vincent Lindon), a jazz musician who aspires to be a composer. Despite their different schedules and career agenda, they engage in a passionate affair. Valentine compares her relationship with Edouard to the dry dissertation of Molière's The Misanthrope in her oral exams at the Sorbonne.
