Just Watch Me: Trudeau and the 70's Generation is a Canadian documentary film by Catherine Annau, produced in 1999 by the National Film Board of Canada.

The film explores the social and cultural impact of former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau's vision of a bilingual and bicultural nation, through interviews with eight Generation Xers whose views of Canada were formed and influenced during the Trudeau era. The name of the movie comes from "just watch me", a phrase made famous by Trudeau in October 1970 when he spoke of his determination to restore civil order in Quebec during the October Crisis.

Actor Evan Adams was one of the eight interview subjects.

Awards for the film include the Genie Award for Best Feature Length Documentary.
