“Naughty Girl” (“La Garçonne” in French) is a 1956 French-Italian comedy-drama directed by Jacqueline Audry. The film follows Monique Lerbier (Andrée Debar), a free-spirited young woman in 1920s Paris who defies societal expectations by embracing a bold, independent lifestyle — wearing trousers, smoking, and rejecting traditional gender roles. As she navigates romantic entanglements and family pressures, Monique challenges the conservative norms of her time, sparking scandal and admiration in equal measure. With its playful yet provocative tone, the film explores themes of feminism, self-expression, and the clash between modernity and tradition in post-war Europe.
