Paulus ("Paul") Henriqus Benedictus Cox (born 16 April 1940 in Venlo, Limburg) is an award-winning Australian-based film director.

Born in the Netherlands, Cox emigrated to Australia. His teaching at Prahran College of Advanced Education in the 1970s influenced a number of photographers and film-makers including Carol Jerrems. He has collaborated with a number of screenwriters including John Clarke and Bob Ellis.

His recent film-essay "The Remarkable Mr. Kaye" is a portrait of his ill friend, the actor Norman Kaye, who appeared in numerous Cox films.
