Didier Kaminka (born April 22, 1943 in Paris ) is a French director, screenwriter and actor.

Life

With Biribi - Hell under the hot sun he is known as a screenwriter. Kaminka wrote his first major film role in 1972 as a screenwriter: as Franck in Pierre Sisser's Die Stunden der Kaltblütigen . While working for Aimez-vous les uns les autres ... mais pas trop , he met his wife Nicole Jamet .

From his collaboration in Pierre Richard's comedy I don't know anything and say everything , in which Nicole Jamet is also involved, in 1973 he became friends with Georges Beller and Luis Rego , a comedian from the group Les Charlots . In Kaminka's directorial debut Trop c'est trop (1975) , Beller plays a leading role alongside the director. Claude Jade and Kaminka's wife Nicole Jamet vie for these bachelors . Les Charlots and Pierre Richard also appear in supporting roles . While the anarcho comedy Trop c'est trop was more of a success, Kaminka remains an actor for the time being (including in Claude Chabrol's Nada ). In 1987 he worked as a director for the second time with As long as there are women .

Under his direction, Marlène Jobert will play her last film role in Becoming a Father Is Hard . Kaminka remained true to comedy in the 1990s, with the films Bettkarriere (1990), À quoi tu penses-tu? (1992) and Where are my wife's wedding going? (1996) with Miou-Miou .
