I remember watching an old movie, “Samson” with Victor Mature. Delilah had a sister, and I kept thinking she looked familiar. The bad girl sister was played by Angela Lansbury. She played a real bitch in a movie where her husband was played by Walter Pidgeon. But I can’t recall the name of that film. ---
