Joe Bordeaux (Actor)

French-Canadian actor Joe Bordeaux joined Mack Sennett's Keystone comedy troupe in 1914 as a comedian and prop man. Though a capable performer, Bordeaux never really developed a screen character of his own, and by the late teens had settled into directing. He helmed a number of comedy two-reelers for the Sunshine comedy unit, as well as several lesser operations. During the 1930s, Joe Bordeaux could be seen playing bit roles in such Hal Roach comedies as Charley Chase's On the Wrong Trek and Laurel & Hardy's Our Relations (both 1936). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
