The Country Girl is a 1915 American short silent romantic comedy-drama film starring Florence La Badie and directed by Frederic Richard Sullivan.

Garrick's play was a version of William Wycherley's Restoration-era comedy, The Country Wife, itself based on two works by the French playwright Molière: L'Ecole des Femmes and L'Ecole des Maris.
