First time I watched this in decades (probably since its original airing!) It still packs the same punch. Just the first few strains of the theme music brings tears. This might have been a "made for TV" movie but had it been a feature film it would have been Oscar worthy!

Brian's Song is a sappy made-for-TV movie intentionally

Brian's Song is a sappy made-for-TV movie intentionally designed to tug on the heartstrings of anyone who watches it. But here's the thing, it's the good kind of sappy. This film is like maple syrup. It's sweet and inoffensive as it dramatizes this heartbreaking true story. Plus, both Billy Dee Williams and James Caan are so charismatic in their roles that you can't help but like them, and you believe they are best friends. So yes, Brian's Song may induce some eye-rolls from people who don't like melodramatic stories, but I found it to be an inspiring film about friendship in the face of adversity.
