Le meilleur gag de Jean-Jacques Rousseau est de s'appeler vraiment Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Il est temps de le saluer comme un des realisateurs les plus novateurs de l'histoire du septieme art. Reinventeur du cinema forain des ages heroiques, cet autodidacte possede tous les talents, cultive toutes les curiosites, s'autorise tous les culots. A la fois producteur, scenariste, realisateur, acteur et diffuseur de ses films, il pratique une autarcie radicale. (...) Il ose ce qu'aucun Godard, aucun Resnais, aucun Fellini, aucun Warhol ne se serait permis. Jean-Pierre Bouyxou Jean-Jacques Rousseau (39 films, dont 4 longs metrages) apparait toujours masque en public et se presente lui-meme comme le cineaste de l'absurde . Ce livre, coordonne par Frederic Sojcher, explore son parcours, le convie a un abecedaire, veritable anthologie surrealiste, et recueille les temoignages de son equipe. Edouard Baer, Benoit Poelvoorde, Bertrand Tavernier et bien d'autres sont fascines par cet ouvrier macon, qui consacre toutes ses economies a son delire de cinema. Sa vie est romanesque et ses films hallucinants.
