King of the Hill is a 1993 American coming-of-age drama film written and directed by Steven Soderbergh. Adapted from A.E. Hotchner's Depression-era memoir, the film follows a young boy navigating life alone in a hotel after his mother is hospitalized and his father is oftentimes absent. It stars Jesse Bradford as Aaron, alongside Jeroen Krabbé and Lisa Eichhorn as his parents. The cast also includes Spalding Gray, Adrien Brody, Karen Allen and Lauryn Hill in supporting roles.

The film received universal critical acclaim for its storytelling and rich character development. It marked the second time Soderbergh directed from his own screenplay, following his 1989 Academy Award-nominated film Sex, Lies, and Videotape. King of the Hill was nominated for the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, and was named one of the top ten films of 1993 by Time and Entertainment Weekly. In 2024, British GQ ranked it as the best film of Soderbergh's career. It was released on Blu-ray by The Criterion Collection.
