Trans-Europ-Express is a 1966 film written and directed by Alain Robbe-Grillet and starring Jean-Louis Trintignant and Marie-France Pisier. The title refers to the Trans Europ Express, a former international rail network in Europe.

The film has been variously described as an erotic thriller, a mystery, and a film-within-a-film.

Screenwriting guru Robert McKee classifies Trans-Europ-Express as a "nonplot" film, that is, a film that does not tell a story.

The soundtrack are bits from La traviata with additional music by Michel Fano.

The film was produced by Samy Helfon; a Como Films Production presented by Trans American Films.

Photography by Willy Kurant.
