Zelig è un film del 1983 scritto, diretto e interpretato da Woody Allen. Considerata uno dei maggiori esempi di trasformismo nell'ambito dello spettacolo, la pellicola è una parodia idiosincratica di un documentario su un personaggio degli anni venti-trenta. Sebbene il documentario dia tutta l'aria di essere ispirato a fatti realmente accaduti, in realtà la storia è inventata e i personaggi fittizi.
