Nanette Burstein, director of the HBO documentary "Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes," spoke to Fox News Digital about the late star's tumultuous marriage to singer Eddie Fisher.
"I was surprised by some of the things that [Elizabeth Taylor] did and admitted to doing. Like attempting suicide, for example. Because she was so unhappy with her marriage to Eddie Fisher and the fact that he put a gun to her head and said, ‘You’re much too pretty to shoot.’ Some of these tidbits of really tumultuous moments in her life were revelations to me."

The actress, who tied the knot eight times to seven men, is the subject of a new HBO documentary, "Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes." The film details the Oscar winner’s life and loves in her words from a recently discovered series of candid interviews.
