Jean-Louis Barrault (8 September 1910, Le Vésinet, Yvelines – 22 January 1994) was a French actor, director and mime artist, training that served him well when he portrayed the 19th-century mime Jean-Gaspard Deburau (Baptiste Debureau) in Marcel Carné's 1945 film Les Enfants du Paradis (Children of Paradise).
Jean-Louis Barrault studied with Charles Dullin in whose troupe he acted from 1933 to 1935. At 25 years of age, he met and studied with the mime Étienne Decroux. From 1940 to 1946 he was a member of the Comédie-Française, where he directed productions of Paul Claudel's Le Soulier de satin and Jean Racine's Phèdre, two plays that made his reputation.
Over his career, he acted in nearly 50 movies including Les beaux jours, Jenny, L'Or dans la Montagne and Sous les Yeux d'occident.
In 1940, he married the actress Madeleine Renaud. They founded a number of theatres together and toured extensively, including in South America.
He was the uncle of actress Marie-Christine Barrault and sometime sponsor of Peter Brook. He died from a heart attack in Paris at the age of 83. Jean-Louis Barrault is buried with his wife Madeleine Renaud in the Passy Cemetery in Paris.
Jean-Louis Barrault, Reflections on the Theatre:
"In fact it is the simplest things that are the most tricky to do well. To read, for example. To be able to read exactly what is written without omitting anything that is written and at the same time without adding anything of one's own. To be able to capture the exact context of the words one is reading. To be able to read!"
Barrault from Melinda Camber Porter's Through Parisian Eyes: Reflections on Contemporary French Arts and Culture:
"When I wake up in the morning I want to feel hungry for life. Desire is what drives me. When I go to sleep, I feel I have experienced a small death, so that I can wake up in the morning renewed and reborn."

Finally, Jeanne escapes alive from a pack of wolves, who set watching the lady alone in the snow covered woods, instead of attacking her. Charles does yet accuse her of being a witch - wishing to have her dead rather than being the wife of Robert... Robert will be her champion in a Judgement of God.

이시도르 이주가 만든 실험영화 "영원과 욕설에 대한 논고"는 레트리즘 영화선언문을 이룬다. 이주는 관객을 속이는 영화 관습을 부정하며 영상과 음향이 일치하지 않는 불일치 영화에 대한 구상을 비롯한 몇 가지 새로운 생각을 제시했다. 또한 필름 자체에 스크래치를 내거나 의도적으로 색을 바래게 만드는 '손상 기술'도 고안했다. 1951년 칸느 영화제에서 격렬한 논란을 일으킨 이 영화는 후에 미국에 소개되어 아방가르드 영화감독 스탠 브래키지에게 영향을 주게 된다. 장 이시도르 이주는 단편소설, 시와 에세이를 비롯한 많은 작품을 출간한 작가였다. 또한 레트리즘 운동의 창시자이기도 했다. 이주는 글을 쓰고 영화를 만들고 사진을 찍고 음악을 만들었으며 영화 연기를 하기도 했다. 이주가 "영화에 맞선 반란"을 언급한 이 작품에서 그는 영화에서 무엇이 잘못된 것이며 그가 생각하기에 영화란 무엇으로 구성되어야 하는 것인지 예를 보여주려 했다. 스탠 브래키지는 이 영화를 수 차례 보고 자신이 강의하는 수업에서 보여주면서 "영원과 욕설에 관한 논고"는 "지극히 형식적이고 정제되어 있으며 균형 잡힌 작품"이라 평했다. 이 영화가 예술적인 표현을 대변하는지 아닌지는 관객 판단의 몫으로 남게 될 것이다. 장 콕토가 "영원과 욕설에 관한 논고"는 도약의 발판인가? 혹은 회피에 불과한가" 라고 물었듯이 말이다. 50년 내에 우리는 이에 대한 답을 알게 될 것이다. 결국 바그너가 어떻게 물러났는지를 기억해야 할 것이다. 오늘날 그의 분노에 아무도 맞서지 않는다. 이주의 양식이 유행하게 되는 날이 오게 될 것이다. 그 누가 알랴?
