NEW YORK, Dec. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- "The Return of Courtney Love" will have its U.S. Premiere on VH1 on Saturday, December 16 at 9:00 PM*.

Much of Courtney Love's chaotic life has played out before us in the tabloids but she has never agreed to take part in a documentary -- until now. This is an intimate portrait of one of the most controversial and complicated women in modern popular culture. Recently out of rehab after 18 months, Courtney has been busy getting her life back on track. We catch up with her as she begins recording a new album, rebuilding relationships with her friends, and bonding with daughter Frances.

The film allows Love the chance to look back at her tumultuous life and reflect on her career, the relationships that shaped her life, drug addiction, and the tragic death of husband Kurt Cobain. Filmed in her California home and at the recording studio, the film also features Love's new music and unseen home movie footage of her and Cobain. "The Return of Courtney Love" documents her personal and professional comeback with searing and sometimes brutal honesty.

The full episode will be available on VSPOT, VH1's broadband channel beginning Sunday, December 17 at http://vspot.vh1.com/. For more information on "The Return of Courtney Love," visit http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/vh1_rock_docs/112303/episode.jhtml.
