One of the finest attempts at showing what it's like to be human in this world. Nobody is trying to screw anybody else over for filthy lucre. And love is true to life. I fell in love in my first year of college (1964) with someone who strongly resembles the female lead in this movie, so every time I watch it, I can see her all over again. I have never seen her again in the more than 50 years that have passed since I saw her last. And that's why this movie is so poignant to me.

Thanks for uploading this. I was looking for the full movie of You Light Up My Life which is not much better than this, but couldn't find it so guess this will have to do.

That is really odd because I uploaded all six parts in wmv format. Can you try it in a different browser? Is it only parts 3 annd 4 or is it also parts 5 and 6 also.

Apart from the bad Randy Newman imitation song, this actually reminds me a lot of the "thirtysomething" TV series.

I was sorry to read about Joe Brooks' tragic life on Wiki. I found it interesting that he is the brother of Gilbert Kaplan, the wealthy investor who hired an orchestra to conduct and record Mahler's Symphony #2.

I worked in the theater on Hollywood Boulevard that first-ran this movie in summer 1978. It was the only movie we showed while I worked there for which we had standing instructions from management to refund people's money any time they asked for it. Many did, some quite belligerently. It was one of the largest theaters on the boulevard (it is now the El Capitan), and many nights we had no more than a dozen people in the audience. It was an utter disaster.

I just played parts 3 and 4 through Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer. There has to be something wrong on your end. The sound is perfect through Chrome. I played it through Chrome with the Chrome Firefox Addon for Firefox and had no sound trouble. Every computer has Internet Explorer on it. Try that. If you have version 7 ignore that youtube says it can't play. It can.

This is one of the worst movies ever made. It is fascinating to see a guy that was famous for writing one crappy song get his own movie....as star, writer, producer, and director. At least Eddie Murphy was the biggest star in Hollywood when he made the horrible "Harlem Nights".....Joe Brooks wrote commercial jingles. Oy!

+manhunter86 He actually wrote two top ten hits and songs that charted further down. Also, "You Light Up My Life" is still in the Billboard all-time top 10 ranking as of 2013. However, he was a creepy rapist whose son was a creepy murderer. so it all balances out.
