László Benedek ((:ˈlaːsloː ˈbɛnɛdɛk); March 5, 1905 – March 11, 1992; sometimes ''Laslo Benedek'') was a Hungarian-born film director and cinematographer, most notable for directing ''The Wild One'' (1953). == Biography == Born in Budapest, he worked as a writer and editor in Hungarian cinema until World War II. Louis B. Mayer helped the Jewish Benedek escape and brought him to Hollywood where he directed his first film for MGM in 1944 as a stand-in. He gained recognition for his direction of the film version of ''Death of a Salesman'' (1951), for which he won the Golden Globe Award for Best Director and a Best Director nomination from the Directors Guild of America. However, it was for his directorial efforts on his next project that Benedek is best remembered. His motorcycle gang film ''The Wild One'' (1953) caused a storm of controversy and was banned in the United Kingdom until 1968. László Benedek spoke several languages and directed the films ''Kinder, Mütter und ein General'' (Germany, 1955) and ''Recours en grâce'' (France, 1960). In Hollywood, Benedek made more motion pictures, but also became a director of television series, such as the ''Perry Mason'' series from 1957. His other credits include episodes of ''The Outer Limits'', ''Mannix'', ''Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea'', ''The Untouchables'', and ''The Alfred Hitchcock Hour''. Benedek also directed "Malaga" aka " Moment of Danger" (1960) starring Dorothy Dandridge and Trevor Howard. This low budget crime drama was the last film made by Dandridge. Benedek died in 1992 in The Bronx, New York. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「László Benedek」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
