“Google Me” is a film that was inspired by a man who wanted to meet all of the people on Google who shared his name.
As the movie trailer states, “Google Me” is a straight forward documentary about one man named Jim Killeen’s quest to interview people around the world that share his name.
“It all started when I Googled my name,” says Killeen in the film’s trailer. “My goal in making this movie is to connect with other people. I think there is something in the human condition that unites all of us.”
Killeen not only starred in the film but directed it as well.
The lighthearted documentary gained favorable results from those willing to participate. However, not all of the Jim Killeens in the world were as friendly as the star of the movie. It seems there was a large portion of Jim Killeens who were not willing to be a part of the film for various reasons.
Killeen along with five other men with the same name recently made an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show. The five Jims got together for a photo shoot and shared life experiences in what was reported to be a pleasant experience for all.
“Google Me” is currently available through Netflix and the official “Google Me” T-shirt has been released and can be purchased online.
