Since her popular part as the surgical oncologist Izzy in Grey's Anatomy, Katherine Heigl emerged in several roles in television series and movies. Her Grey's Anatomy era is considered the height of her career, although her professional history is filled with notable acting roles and other worthy entertainment features. Heigl began in entertainment fairly early, starting out as a child model in advertisements from Lord & Taylor to Cheerios and venturing into the acting vocation she has become known for today.

Heigl's first big roles before Grey's Anatomy's 2005 debut included parts in the rom-com My Father The Hero and the 1995 film Under Siege 2: Dark Territory. Alongside her early movie stints, Heigl secured television roles and maintained a successful modeling career, until finally joining the original cast of Grey's Anatomy. Her performance as Isobel "Izzy" Stevens made Heigl a household name and produced for her a Golden Globe nomination...

Anyone who longs for the days of The Little House on the Prairie and a recreation of the wholesome, family-friendly homesteading the TV series based on Laura Ingalls Wilder’s books offered to audiences, will find some comfort in the Love Comes Softly made-for-tv movie series. The 10 movies frame simple stories of love and faith filled out by impressive casts (including a Katherine Heigl before Grey’s Anatomy, January Jones before Mad Men, Erin Cottrell ) and writing that manages to cater to the Lifetime audience while featuring writing easily heads and tails above the very low standards set by that network’s abysmal TV-movie collection. Compared to Lifetime, the Love Comes Softly films have genuine merit and just enough substance to keep interested viewers coming back for the tales of love unfolding across generations.

Public Enemies (Universal) Johnny Depp portrays legendary Depression-era bank robber John Dillinger in co- writer/director Michael Mann’s take on America’s first “Public Enemy Number One.” Like many big studio releases today, Public Enemies has it all: A-list talent before and behind the camera, but lacks a heart or soul that allows its audience to connect with it. Film plays out like a “true crime” TV show with re-enactments of famous events cast with top actors and shot by the best technicians in the business, with little, if any, character or story development to hold it together in between. A real disappointment from one of our finest filmmakers and finest actors. The lone standout: the great character actor Stephen Lang as a hard-eyed lawman who’s seen a lot, but manages to retain a tiny piece of his heart. For a better take on the same subject,...

A few stars of film and television fame will be calling Hallmark Channel their home when the movie "Love Finds a Home" premiers on Saturday, April 11th (9/8c). The story follows the life of Dr. Belinda Owens (Sarah Jones), a young medical doctor confronted by the challenges of laboring in a male-dominated profession while living as a wife and mother in the old American West.

The original series also stars Haylie Duff (Napoleon Dynamite, 7th Heaven) as Dr. Annie Watson, a very pregnant medical doctor who pays a visit to her dear friend and colleague Belinda. Academy Award-winning actress Patty Duke appears as Mary, Annie's meddlesome mother-in-law whose homeopathic treatments contradict Belinda's traditional medical training.

"Love Finds a Home" is the eighth and final chapter of the "Love Comes Softly" film series inspired by the faith-based novels written by Janette Oke.

20th Century Fox Home Entertainment said Tuesday that it is reaching out to Christians with FoxFaith, a new label that will market DVDs aimed at the faith-based audience. It also will release some of the films in theaters. It will distribute at least six -- and possibly as many as a dozen -- of the movies theatrically each year, beginning with Michael Landon Jr.'s Love's Abiding Joy, based on the fourth novel in Janette Oke's Love Comes Softly series about a 19th century frontier family. Joy will be released Oct. 6 on 230-240 screens in 90 markets through such circuits as Carmike Theatres, AMC and some regional chains. While the films will be supported with $5 million marketing campaigns that will encompass local TV, newspapers, direct mail and grass-roots efforts, they will not be distributed through 20th Century Fox's theatrical apparatus but will be released through the Bigger Picture, a subsidiary of Woodland Hills-based Sabella Dern Entertainment, which specializes in the digital delivery of alternative content.
