Helen Walker, under drastically different life-circumstances, turned in two top-flight supporting roles in two of classic noir's best: the original NIGHTMARE ALLEY, and THE BIG COMBO.
Would've been interesting (though perhaps encroaching on "young David Thomson" territory--in his intriguing novel SUSPECTS) if it had been Lilith Ritter who'd married Mr. Brown...now that's a couple that could keep psychiatrists (armchair and otherwise) busy with speculation for years!
