LOS ANGELES? – IFC Films has grabbed U.S. rights to the documentary "Yves Saint Laurent L'Amour Fou," and is planning a 2011 release.

After the iconic fashion designer's death in 2008, Saint Laurent's life companion, Pierre Berge, organized an auction to sell their private art collection. The film, directed by Pierre Thorentton, documents the story of their lives through these rare material archives and exclusive images of their homes.

"While it documents a glamorous icon, it also carries themes of love and success, elements to make it a picture that appeals to all," said IFC Films president Jonathan Sehring.
