Sorrowful Jones Overview:
Sorrowful Jones (1949) was a Comedy - Black-and-white Film directed by Sidney Lanfield and produced by Robert L. Welch.
SYNOPSIS
The critical estimation of Hope's acting rose after this remake of Little Miss Marker (1934). Hope makes a colorfully Runyonesque character as a gambler who receives a six-year-old girl (an appealing Saunders) as a marker for a bet. The father never returns, leaving Hope and Saunders to search for him among the denizens of Runyon's world, including a run-in with a sympathetic chorus girl, Ball.
