Leave your thoughts about King of the Gypsies.
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatKing of the Gypsies is a fine wedding of craft and creativity. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrHalf the film passes while Pierson fumbles with the exposition—setting up an intricate internecine war for control of a Gypsy clan—and then he fumbles the action. Pointless, messy, rambling; no atmosphere and no energy. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyFrank Pierson has written and directed a melodrama about three generations of gypsies that is all color and no substance. |
| User ReviewSummer Hthis is our all time fav childhood movie...we used to watch it with our Father all the time along with Angelo my love...our Fathers copies have gone missing... Fantastic movie...closed to home and the heart... |
| User ReviewEric CNot as violent as the The Godfather but surprisingly good. |
| User ReviewGreg Wawesome pic and Eric Robert's film debut |
| User ReviewAj VThis movie from the 70s has a hodgepodge cast that surprisingly works well. Eric Roberts, Sterling Haden, Susan Sarandon, Shellie Winters, Annie Potts and great performance by Judd Hirsch. When a young gypsy's grandfather wants him to take over as King of the gypsies instead of his father, but he (Roberts) wants no part of gypsy life, he plans to leave until he comes back for his little sister, played by Brooke Shields. Wonderful costumes and soundtrack, fun to watch, in part for the 70s kitchy sort of way this comes across. |
| User ReviewWes KAfter a slow first hour, the film begins to get interesting. The structure feels as though it stops and starts throughout, with several dead end plot points or unresolved plants. The acting by all principals was decent, most notably Judd Hirsch's portrayal of the ruthless, immoral Gypsy father. |
| User ReviewJerry JThe sequence of the movie is so lame, the book is much better. |
