Waiting For Guffman is a self-conscious parody of Middle America's dream to make it in showbiz. A small town in Missouri puts on a very amateur theater production celebrating its sesquicentennial. Now watch everyone from the local dentist to the cashier at Dairy Queen get delusions of grandeur. This is a documentary-style chronicling of a painfully unprofessional stage production.
Parts are funny, but of course, always at somebody else's expense.
Waiting For Guffman is also a sobering indictment against those of us who have tried a little community theater, to remind us that we are a joke. Private Parts Rating R for strong language, nudity and crude sexual humor Howard Stern's Private Parts consists of five percent shock value and 95 percent tame and ordinary autobiography. Boy agonizes through high school as a gangly geek. Boy starts as DJ at local college station. Boy graduates, gets his first real job for a radio station and continues to be dull, even marrying his college sweetheart.
