I think Brigid is the UnBuiltTrope for the FilmNoir type of FemmeFatale, she doesn\'t dress very provocatively, or do much anything we today example the classic Noir style FemmeFatale to do. Though she does happen to be the only example I\'m aware of from an actual 40s Detective film where it was the FemmeFatale who hired the HardboiledDetective to begin with.
