This rather sad, silly and sterile proposition is seen through a teary blur of bravery. Thank You might have been subtitled Orphan of the Sexual Storm. Seduced, pregnant and very much alone, Sandy Dennis, an arch-valiant London waif, decides to have her baby anyway. She wouldn't dream of darkening her parents' door, and they have left for Africa anyway. She is too proud to tell the father (Ian McKellen), a BBC TV announcer who was only with her for one gravid night. Apparently she takes a dim view of his husbandly potential in any case, though...

Except for Hill, whose blond good looks, shaggy hair and modish clothes could easily mark him as a jet-setter, there is almost no one else around. It is a sad contrast to his high-rolling days, when prominent clergymen, judges and politicians felt it an honor to be entertained at the home of the mobster known as Joe Bananas. When the Government tried to deport Bonanno in 1954, for instance, among those who testified as character witnesses were the Most Rev.
