Big Shot's Funeral (Chinese: 大腕; pinyin: Dàwàn; lit. 'Big Wrist', Mandarin colloquialism for "big shot") is a 2001 Chinese black comedy film directed by Feng Xiaogang. It was written by Feng, Li Xiaoming and Shi Kang. The black comedy starred Ge You, Rosamund Kwan and Donald Sutherland.

The film follows a temporary photographer (Ge You), who befriends a famed American film director (Sutherland) and goes to raise money for his friend's funeral after an accident during the shooting of a documentary.

Released on 21 December 2001 as a Chinese New Year film, the film is produced by Huayi Brothers Advertising, Taihe Films, and Columbia Pictures. It marked the fourth collaboration between director Feng Xiaogang and actor Ge You. Despite being panned by critics, the film did modestly at the box office, and won the Best Feature Film Award at China's 25th Hundred Flowers Awards in 2002, and actor Ge You won the Best Actor Award.
