Ernest
Bourbon was born in Vierzon, Cher, France on October 23, 1886. Bourbon began
his acting career in 1911 under the leadership of Jean Durand , especially in
films about his character Calino or
Zigoto. It was in 1912 that the director
offered him the role of Onesime who will make him famous. Bourbon then focused his career on this
particular character, to the point of staging all of his films on the
adventures of this one character, even dropping director Durand from the series
and taking over the director’s duties himself. His short career ended in 1918.
He died on November 19, 1954 in Paris,
France.
