Un Soir de Joie (French; literally "An Evening of Joy") is a Belgian comic film, directed by Gaston Schoukens and released in 1955. The film's plot takes place during the German occupation of Belgium in World War II, and focuses on the so-called Faux Soir, a satirical version of the German controlled newspaper Le Soir ("The Evening [News]") produced by the Belgian Resistance.

The film's title is a pun, referring both to "An evening of joy", and "A Le Soir of joy". The film includes extensive footage of Brussels in the 1950s, where it was filmed on location.[1]

Marcel Roels, Roger Dutoit, Jean-Pierre Loriot, Victor Guyau, Madeleine Rivière, Jacques Philippet, Francine Vendel all acted in the film.
