Bob Hope Tribute Collection - Sorrowful Jones / The Paleface Double Feature
Sorrowful Jones Bob Hope teams with Lucille Ball in this memorable story. Sorrowful (Hope) takes a bet from a rotten gambler who leaves his young daughter as collateral. When the bettor doesn't come back, Sorrowful Jones learns some hard lessons about parenthood - whether he wants to or not! Lucille Ball plays nightclub singer Gladys O'Neil in this remake of the 1934 Shirley Temple film Little Miss Marker. The Paleface In one of his most popular roles, Bob Hope plays "Painless" Peter Potter, who is seduced into a quickie marriage by the voluptuous Jane Russell. Little does he suspect that Russell is actually sharpshooter Calamity Jane, hot on the trail of a dangerous renegade gang and simply using "Painless" as her unwitting dupe!
