Lubomír Lipský(1923-2015)

Brother of Oldrich Lipský.

[on At zijí duchové! (1977)]: "Although I tried to avoid that bunch of excited children, I must say that Dana Vávrová caught my attention even then. She was very obedient and unusually smart for her age. Talking to her was a balm, unlike the other children. I also remember the scene with the dwarfs very fondly. To this day I don't know how the cinematographer and trickster Vladimír Novotný filmed it. Lots of strings, cameras, mirrors, but I had no idea how it worked. When I asked him, he always told me off, keeping it as his production secret. He did everything on his knees, without any graphics, let alone computers, but everything worked perfectly."
