The film's two main characters are definitely worth knowing, but the movie takes them on a predictable odyssey.

A mostly undistinguished addition to the long list of films about alienated and self-pitying young people.
July 16, 2004 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… -
The film's main appeal stems from the two main characters, whose close relationship is well-conveyed and moving.

It is clear that as a filmmaker Todd Stephens, like his heroes and heroines, is determined to be true to himself.
May 21, 2004 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… -
Saga is especially sapped of its appeal and energy by the toxically charmless titular character whose central obsession -- dressing up like Stevie Nicks and singing her material -- is curiously wedged between comedy and oddity.

Deserves to be discovered not only by Goth and gay crowds, but by anyone who runs screaming from all things average.

Mar 11, 2008I both like and dislike this film. I love Clyde and Gypsy, but I hated the shit they got put through, and that the ending was more realistic than a proper happy ending. That's life I guess.Kylie B Super Reviewer

Jul 25, 2005[font=Century Gothic]"Gypsy 83" is about the token outsiders of Sandusky, Ohio. Gypsy(Sara Rue) is a 25 year old Stevie Nicks clone(I'm actually more of a Christine McVie person myself) who works at a local photo developer and drives a classic Trans Am. Her mom abandoned her 18 years before for the big lights of New York City leaving her with her father who works in a music store. Clive(Kett Turton) is a straight-A student, high school senior, gay and something of a goth. They find out about a contest called "Night of a Thousand Stevies" in New York City that is scheduled in four days time. Gypsy agrees to enter and off they go...[/font] [font=Century Gothic]"Gypsy 83" is a well-meaning tale with likable leads but it relies too much on types and caricatures to be any good. Not much of the movie is really believable with only a few scenes that have any lasting emotional impact. And why does Gypsy choose Stevie Nicks as her personal goddess? Is it her music?
