Where to Stream 11 of Sam Shepard's Most Memorable Movies

Shepard's role in the 2012 drama Mud left quite the impression on costar Matthew McConaughey, who had nothing but kind words to say about his late friend after hearing of his death. "I always told [director] Jeff Nichols this, I said the whole trailer for Mud could be Sam Shepard sitting in that green chair telling the boy about who Mud is," McConaughey said. "We lost one of the great ones. Great writer, great mind."
