Oldřich Lipský (4 July 1924, Pelhřimov - 19 October 1986, Prague) was a Czech film director and screenwriter, brother of actor Lubomír Lipský. He made more than twenty films, all of them comedies drawing on Dadaism, farce and magical realism. His western parody Lemonade Joe (1964) was distributed in fifty countries, and the experimental Happy End (1967) - a film told entirely in reverse - won best film at the Sitges Festival. His most frequent collaborator on screen was actor Miloš Kopecký; from 1974 he also worked regularly with screenwriters Zdeněk Svěrák and Ladislav Smoljak.
