Live and act

Haudepin began acting as a child and, not yet ten years old, first appeared in front of the film camera. Haudepin embodied children and adolescents of all kinds at a young age (including the young David Copperfield in a television production in the mid-1960s), several times with typical puberty problems, even at times when he had long outgrown adolescence: So he played in 1973 in old age already 22 years old, the fuzzy-headed, 16-year-old Pierre, who was involved in the romantic and erotic initiation story. Are you interested in the matter? is immortally in love with Dina, who is of the same age, and has to endure all sorts of confusions and confusions of love before it comes to the tender "first time".

During these years he was also seen in an abundance of plays, such as Des clowns par milliers (1963) by Herb Gardner in a production by Raymond Rouleau at the Théâtre du Gymnase Marie Bell, in La Ville dont le prince est un enfant (1967) by Henri de Montherlant in a staging by Jean Meyer at the Paris Théâtre Michel, in Une poignée d'orties (1970) by Marc-Gilbert Sauvajon in a staging by Jacques-Henri Duval at the Théâtre de la Michodière, in Jean Anouilh's Le Directeur de l 'Opéra (1972) in a production by Roland Piétri at the Comédie des Champs-Élysées and in 1977 under the direction of Caroline Huppert in the play On ne badine pas avec l'amour by Alfred de Musset at the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord.

Towards the end of the 1970s, Haudepin was gradually able to escape the youngster roles - the last central role as Simone Signoret's son in the television series The Examining Judge - and after his small role as Catherine Deneuve's secretary in The Mysterious Sect (1979) hardly appeared in front of the camera. Instead, he began directing films at very irregular intervals, but only with rather mixed success. In the early 1980s, he can also be proven as a set designer in two productions. Until 2012 Didier Haudepin owned Bloody Mary Productions, a small film production company. In his not exactly impressive, but nevertheless intense film career, Didier Haudepin worked with a considerable number of respected and international directors, including Peter Brook , Juan Antonio Bardem , Jules Dassin , Jean Delannoy , Jean Negulesco , Luchino Visconti , Marcel Carné and Bertrand Tavernier .

His sister, who is four years younger than him, is the actress Sabine Haudepin .
