June 1949 and film

I’m doing a report for my film class on great films during June 1949 (every person in the class has to pick a month and year to report on, so I picked June 1949 randomly). So, I have 2 questions:

  1. Which film had the largest advertising campaign (as in which film got the most publicity) in June 1949?

  2. What was the highest grossing film in June 1949 (I read somewhere it was Sorrowful Jones but I don’t know if that’s true)?
