Guy Bedos
Guy Bedos (15 June 1934 – 28 May 2020) was a French scriptwriter, stand-up comedian and actor (mostly known for his part in the film Nous irons tous au paradis). He identified with the ethnic group Pied-Noir, descending from Algeria. At Music-Hall, he interpreted various sketches of authors like him. He developed a regularly updated political satire. This satire affected mostly right-wing politicians, his "friends" of the left also suffer from his cutting reflections.
He was also famous for his left-wing political affiliation and he had supported politicians such as François Mitterrand.
Guy Bedos is the son of Alfred Bedos, health visitor, and Hildeberte Verdier, daughter of the headmaster of the high school Bugeaud, where he was raised. His parents separated. He was tossed around, home to hotel, in Kouba, where there was a pension at age seven in Finouche, who served as a teacher, Souk Ahras and Constantine. He enrolled at the age of thirteen with a Catholic high school in Bone. According to his autobiography ‘Memories d’outre-mere’, his bad relationship with his mother and step-father made his life very difficult. His step-father beat his mother, who beat her son. He also tells us that his step-father was racist and antisemitic, but that his mother gave him his human political consciousness. He also revealed that during that period of time he had obsessive compulsive disorders.
His uncle, Jacques Bedos, worked at Radio Algerias before entering the ORTF in Paris, where he vacationed as an artist.
He arrived in Paris in June 1949 with his parents and his two twin half-sisters, left the family home of Rueil-Malmaison in February 1950, and sold books, going door to door. At seventeen, he entered the Rue Blanche school, learned classical theater, and signed his first production: Marivaux Arlequin poli par l’amour. He played in theaters, but also cabarets, as La Fontaine des Quarte-Saisons. He was engaged by Francois Billetdoux, when Jacques Prevert, who found him writing, encouraged him to write sketches. He performed his first sketch, signed by Jacques Chazot, La Galerie 55.
In 1954, he made his first appearance in the cinema in Futures Vedettes by Marc Allégret.
In order for him to fulfill his military service during the Algerian war, he went on a hunger strike and succeeded in being reformed for mental illness.
Bedos died on 28 May 2020 at age 85; the death was confirmed by his son, Nicolas Bedos
