1978: Golden Globes: Nominated for Best Acting Debut in a Motion Picture - Male (Eric Roberts)
- Critics' reviews
-
-
"'King of the Gypsies' gets caught in a paralyzing bind between sordid subject matter and ridiculous casting."
-
"Although this film suffered from some miscasting--especially the choice of Shields, whose performance is more than mildly distressing--King of the Gypsies offers an often fascinating look at gypsy culture in America."
-
"Eric Roberts, making his movie debut, shines as a Travolta-ish hero who wants to surmount his family origins."
