And then I got married
right after that.
Hedwig, as an actress,
drew, of course,
the attention of many people,
and one of those was
I was married to
a munitions tycoon in Austria!
He is the Henry Ford of Austria.
He, at that point,
is 14 years her senior.
He is allied with the Nazis
because he's
an armaments manufacturer.
As it is the same today,
a lot of wealthy men would like
to decorate themselves
with beautiful women,
and I think she was,
for a minute,
fascinated with that as well.
We had a country house
with 25 guest rooms.
And we went hunting.
And I loved that.
Do you know guns?
Yes.
I had a Browning
and I shot a stag into the neck
350 meters.
Meters? Very long.
I'm a good shot
so be careful!
Hedy was Mandl's armpiece
at the banquets that he served
for admirals
in the German and Italian Navy.
She sat there and it was
her job to be beautiful,
but she was bored
out of her mind.
Fritz Mandl was,
by German measures, Jewish,
and therefore,
Hitler was concerned
not to be seen with him,
and I doubt very much
if Hitler was a guest
at one of their houses,
but Mussolini was.
I assume that
your first husband
was supplying arms to the...
To the Germans.
But he never let me in on...
He never even let me
come into the factory.
I disturbed the people.
I didn't know why...
Fritz did not like the effect
that his beautiful wife had
on other men.
He was immensely jealous
He was constantly convinced
that she might be having
an affair.
The big mistake
my husband at the time did
he bought up prints of that...
dumb picture!
Mandl had the problem
of this film,
this dirty picture
which he tried to buy up,
and they started cranking
them out by the dozens,
and he eventually gave up
because, obviously,
they could make as many copies
as he chose to buy.
He turned out to be someone
on her phone calls.
She had everything
she could ever want,
except the one thing that
which was freedom.
By 1937,
the war was inevitable,
and she was
in a desperate situation.
Because after all,
Hitler had everything
in the palm of his hand.
When Ecstasy was released,
Hitler told the American press
he was banning it
because the lead actress
was Jewish.
Jewish people were not allowed
out on streets
and, gradually,
they were denied
more and more civil rights.
And this is one thing that led
to Hedy's father Emil's death
was his stress and worry
about what was happening.
He died suddenly
from a heart attack.
And I think that was
