Between accidents, addictions and hospital-acquired infections, Guillaume Depardieu's life was anything but that of an actor's child spoiled by destiny. Born in 1971, the son of Gérard and Elisabeth Depardieu and brother of Julie Depardieu, he played a host of difficult roles in films such as Les Apprentis (1995), Pola X (1999), Aime ton père (2000), Stella (2008) and his latest, L'enfance d'Icare (2009). After a motorcycle accident in 1995, and a leg amputation in 2003, Guillaume Depardieu revealed his true self in the interview book Tout donner (2004). Before his death on October 13, 2008, he left a handful of songs, collected in the album Post Mortem released in November 2013.
