A Place in the Sun (sh. Mjesto pod suncem) je američki crno-bijeli film snimljen 1951. u režiji Georgea Stevensa. Po žanru je drama i predstavlja drugu po redu adaptaciju znamenitog romana Američka tragedija Theodorea Dreisera. Protagonist, čiji lik tumači Montgomery Clift, je ambiciozni mladić siromašnog porijekla koji se pokušava ući u "pristojno društvo" kroz rad u tvornici, ali i ljubavnu vezu sa kćeri njenog vlasnika (čiji lik tumači Elizabeth Taylor). Radnja prikazuje kako takve planove zakomplicira neobavezna veza s neuglednom i siromašnom radnicom (čiji lik tumači Shelley Winters) koja je završila trudnoćom.

A Place in the Sun je doživio ogroman uspjeh kod publike, potvrdivši Clifta i Taylor kao jedne od najvećih zvijezda tadašnjeg Hollywooda, ali i kod kritike. Osvojio je šest Oscara, ali i prvi Zlatni globus za najbolji dramski film. Kasnija kritika mu je, pak, zamjerala što se, za razliku od književnog predloška, manje bavio kritikom klasnih razlika i naglasak umjesto toga stavio na melodramu. Usprkos toga, danas se smatra jednim od najboljih i najvažnijih filmova svog vremena. Kasnijim generacijama je poznat i po muzičkoj partituri koju je napisao Franz Waxman i koja je, također, nagrađena Oscarom.
