Hollywood Star Shows Golden Globe Worthy Talent Before Grey's Anatomy

Katherine Heigl stars in smart, sexy comedy.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWeb) January 12, 2007 -- Recently nominated for a Golden Globe for her role on Grey's Anatomy, Katherine Heigl's talent was first noticed in the romantic-comedy Side Effects, which is now available on DVD.

"I was fortunate to have landed Katherine right before she started shooting Grey's Anatomy," said filmmaker Kathleen Slattery-Moschkau. "Fans who love her as 'Izzie' will be blown away by her in Side Effects, which is all Katherine, all the time."

A smart and sexy film, Side Effects is the story of Karly Hart (Katherine Heigl) who has spent the last ten years selling drugs...legally, that is. She works for one of corporate America's darlings, the pharmaceutical industry. Karly has it all - a big salary, a company car, a closet full of hot business suits and a growing pit in her stomach. Side Effects was inspired by the writer/director's real-life experiences in the pharmaceutical industry.

"Side Effects shows off Katherine's full range of talent," said Slattery-Moschkau. "She has a natural gift for physical comedy, but also perfects the dramatic moments."

This small independent film played to sold-out crowds during a limited theatrical release in cities across the country, and received international press attention. For more information visit www.sideeffectsthemovie.com.
