The Google Guys Go Hollywood

The San Francisco Chronicle reports:

After becoming Internet moguls, Google Inc. co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page are dipping their toes into Hollywood.

The pair are executive producers of a low-budget, independent film to be released next year, "Broken Arrows," written and directed by a friend of theirs, Reid Gershbein.

Google's founders tapped into their vast personal fortunes, estimated at $16 billion each, to fund about half the film's budget. Production cost just under $1 million, according to Gershbein.

A spokeswoman for Google confirmed the role of her company's founders in the film but declined to discuss any other details.

Will it work out better than DreamWorks?
