Having been a Stern Fan since '84, I had the great opportunity to live through most of what Private Parts chronicles as Stern's NBC experience. While some of the events portrayed in the film may be out of sequence & even punched up for the film's audience, the fact remains that Private Parts most unbelievable scenes are absolutely & positively true. Where does the film fudge the truth? Little things like Stern's "look". The long hair & sunglasses shown in his Wash D.C. days didn't occur until after Stern was fired from NBC. And the redhead / bathtub scene, that is actually part of an incident that occurred with Jessican Hahn. But the real outrageous things, like learning to say the call letters properly (W-ENNN-B-C!), the fist fight in Pig Virus's office & the pure jealousy of Imus were 100% on target. This is a great film which could only have been made better by the addition of WNBC facts like Stern's on-air feuds with Soupy Sales, & the utter destruction & disappearance of WNBC radio as a result of Stern's departure. A must see romantic comedy.
