Sois belle et tais-toi (Be Pretty and Shut Up) is a feminist documentary film by French actress and director Delphine Seyrig, shot in 1976 and released in 1981. It is available at the Centre audiovisuel Simone de Beauvoir in Paris.[1]

The film is a series of interviews with various well-known film actresses, including Jenny Agutter, Maria Schneider, and Jane Fonda. The title, which is borrowed from a 1958 film with the same name by Marc Allégret, refers to the sense the actresses have of what is expected of them by the film industry.
