Street Smart is a 1987 American crime thriller film directed by Jerry Schatzberg and starring Christopher Reeve, Morgan Freeman, Kathy Baker and Mimi Rogers.

When a real pimp who closely matches the fictional description (Freeman) is indicted for murder, both he and the prosecutor try to exploit the reporter for their own ends.

The film was released to theatres by Cannon Films on March 20 1987. Despite being well-received by audiences and critics, the film was a commercial failure. The performances of Freeman and Baker were highly praised, and Freeman considered his role as his film breakthrough. He was nominated for both an Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award, and won the Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Male for his performance.
