Gypsy is a 1937 British drama film directed by Roy William Neill and starring Roland Young, Chili Bouchier and Hugh Williams. It based on the 1935 novel Tzigane by Lady Eleanor Smith.
Romani dancer Hassina falls in love with lion tamer Brazil and travels to London to find him. Brazil is supposedly working at the Crystal Palace, but he is not there when Hassina arrives. After fainting from lack of food, Hassina is taken into the home of wealthy middle-aged bachelor Alan Brooks, who falls in love with her.
The film was made at Teddington Studios by the British subsidiary of Warner Brothers. [1] Like many Teddington productions of the era, it is now considered to be a lost film.
