actor who appeared in many classic films in the cinematic output of the former Yugoslavia.

In later years, Vidović starred in Naša mala klinika, a Croatian sitcom aired on Nova TV.
Vidović was married twice, both times for his screen partners. With Mirjana Majurec, from whom he divorced, he had one child. His second wife was Serbian actress Gordana Gadžić, with whom he had two children.
