Biography

Benedict Bogeaus est le fondateur en 1944 de la Benedict Bogeaus Productions (plus tard également dénommée Filmcrest Productions ou Waverly Productions). Les deux premiers films de cette compagnie indépendante sont The Bridge of San Luis Rey  de Rowland V. Lee (avec Lynn Bari et Francis Lederer) et Dark Waters d'André De Toth (avec Merle Oberon et Franchot Tone), sortis la même année.

En tout, il produit vingt-huit films américains, dont neuf réalisés par Allan Dwan, avec lequel il collabore à partir des westerns Quatre étranges cavaliers (avec John Payne et Dan Duryea), Tornade (avec Cornel Wilde et Yvonne De Carlo) et La Reine de la prairie (avec Barbara Stanwyck et Ronald Reagan), sortis en 1954. Le dernier film de Benedict Bogeaus (et d'Allan Dwan) est Most Dangerous Man Alive, avec Debra Paget et Elaine Stewart, sorti en 1961.

Mentionnons aussi Captain Kidd de Rowland V. Lee (1945, avec Randolph Scott et Charles Laughton), Le Journal d'une femme de chambre, un des films américains de Jean Renoir (1946, avec Paulette Goddard et Burgess Meredith), ou encore De la Terre à la Lune de Byron Haskin (1958, avec Joseph Cotten et George Sanders).

En 1946, Benedict Bogeaus épouse l'actrice Dolores Moran (1926-1982), dont il divorce en 1962. Elle tourne quatre films produits par lui, dont Quatre étranges cavaliers (1954) pré-cité.
