He was always good. A very subtle actor.

I always enjoyed him in everything I saw him in. One of mine and my dad's favorite little gems is a clever TV western movie called Purgatory with Shepard in the lead.

RIP

Really interesting life. Didn't always make the best choices in his personal life, but who does, right? There's a fairly interesting documentary that covers some of this called Shepard & Dark, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2221784/?ref_=nm_flmg_slf_7

Damn...

^ The last time I saw him at work.

Hell of an actor. Hell of a writer. Hell of a man.

A true loss. He was already legendary in his forties when I studied his plays "True West" and "Buried Child" in college. He was a fine actor, too. RIP sir.

Yeah we watched Fool for Love in my college Theater class. He is taught by many college professors.

I believe he was married to Jessica Lange loved him in Black Hawk Down

I don't think he and Jessica Lange ever married, but they were together a long time. They split a few years back,

Together for 27 years...
