Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes | Official Trailer | HBO

Elizabeth Taylor contemplated ending her life because she was so miserable in her marriage with Eddie Fisher , a new documentary about the late movie star reveals.

Taylor said she became depressed and began taking sleeping pills “deliberately, calmly and in front of” Fisher in a suicide attempt. Fisher was Taylor’s fourth husband. When they wed, she already shared sons Michael Wilding Jr. and Christopher Wilding with second husband Michael Wilding, daughter Liza Frances Todd with third husband Mike Todd, and adopted daughter Maria McKeown Burton with Richard Burton.
