The Art of Crying (Danish: Kunsten at Græde i Kor) is a 2006 Danish tragicomedy directed by Peter Schønau Fog.

Based upon an autobiographical novel by Erling Jepsen, the screenplay was written by Bo Hr. Hansen. In 2007, the film received both the Bodil and Robert awards for Best Danish Film, and The Nordic Council Film Prize.
