Based on Neal Gabler's best-selling book An Empire of Their Own, this feature-length documentary tells the story of the men who founded Hollywood.
Adolph Zukor, founder of Paramount; Carl Laemmle, founder of Universal; the Warner brothers, Harry and Jack; Louis B.
Mayer, founder of MGM; William Fox of 20th Century Fox; and Harry Cohn, head of Columbia.
All were immigrants, or children of immigrants, who wanted to reinvent themselves as Americans.
In the process, they reinvented America.
