Noël Blank is a Canadian short film, directed by Jean-François Rivard and released in 2003. The film stars Gilles Pelletier as Eddy, a man with Alzheimer's disease who temporarily leaves his nursing home to experience what is likely to be his last family Christmas. The cast also includes Sylvain Marcel, Pascale Desrochers and Patrice Dussault.

The film's title is a play on words, blending "Noël blanc", the French-language translation of the phrase "White Christmas", with the English-language word "blank".

The film won the Genie Award for Best Live Action Short Drama at the 24th Genie Awards.
