Rowan and Martin do Broken Hearts Club, 9 July 2001
8/10
Author: Vanyel from Portland, OR

I liked the movie, and in particular did not experience the audio problems the other commenter did, but maybe they fixed that on the DVD, which is where I saw it. There are lots of good extras (interviews and an audio commentary) on the DVD also, unusual for a low-budget indie film. The editing style may not be to everyone's taste, but I liked it. It did remind me of the old Rowan and Martin show where they kept bouncing between people dancing to stop and get a one-liner. Gypsy Boys is a lot more coherent than that, but similar in how the perspective flows from one clique to another, especially in the introductory scenes at the beginning. And like Queer As Folk, I think this movie makes an important statement on how people (gay men in this case) mistake highs of various sorts for happiness while studiously ignoring the real thing when it stares them in the face.
