This new page is “Voted Up” because of the nostalgic trip down Memory Lane it gives me. Surprisingly as his career ended just as I was old enough to go to the movies I have seen 7 of Ray’s movies all but one of which are westerns and they are the kind of movies that young Bob gave top priority to in the early 1950s – “A Streetcar Named What? Sounds like dry goods so I’ll give it a miss!” Anyway my 7 “have seens”.
1/The Wagons Roll at Night: 1941 was Bogie’s sudden and swift breakthrough year and this was his 2nd major film as the lead star -the first being High Sierra that year in which he was nonetheless still 2nd billed to Ida Lupino. However one film historian observed about The Wagons Roll at Night: “Starting with this movie Bogart received top billing in all his films.” It was actually a reworking of 1937’s Kid Galahad substituting the boxing ring in Kid Galahad with the circus as the venue for the 1941 plot. Bogie had a supporting role in Kid Galahad with Eddie Robinson in the lead.
2/Sin Town. One of the few movies in which Brodie Crawford was the hero. He was though 2nd billed to his leading lady Constance Bennett who took over the heroine role from Dietrich. It is actually one of the very first movies that I can recall seeing.
3/Trail Street. One of my fave Randy Scott movies with Randy as Bat Masterson and George Gabby Hayes as his sily sidekick. The Work Horse doesn’t think much of it in his ratings column. Sorry – wrong again Big Boy!!
4/Randy again. This time with Robert Ryan as a villainous Sundance Kid and George Gabby Hayes once more as Randy slapstick foil. Great one-liner as Billy the Kid rides away and Sundance goes to shoot him in the back. “I wouldn’t if I were you. He’s got eyes in the back of his head,” Anne Jeffreys as gun-tootin’ tomboy Cheyenne cautions Sundance who wisely takes her advice. Robert Ryan and Anne were also with Randy I Trail Street mentioned above. Eat your heart out today Dan!
5/Coroner Creek-Randy YET again!
6/Kansas Raiders – Bernie Swartz just before he gained stardom
7/South of St Louis – I always loved that title.

I confess…I am not even sure I had heard the name Ray Enright before doing this page on him. His movies crossed over $3 billion in adjusted domestic box office. He worked with legends: John Wayne, Alan Ladd, Humphrey Bogart, Olivia de Havilland, James Cagney, Randolph Scott, Robert Mitchum, Edward G. Robinson, Henry Fonda and Robert Mitchum, to name a few. I had even seen 5 of his movies…but if you asked me yesterday…Who is Ray Enright? I would have probably guessed an NFL offensive lineman before guessing a film director.
