‘True West’ stars Ethan Hawke and Paul Dano on Sam Shepard's ‘profound sensibility'

The Sam Shepard play “True West” is a revival of an American theater classic. The play has been a magnet for great actors since it was written in 1980. In this contemporary version, it stars Ethan Hawke and Paul Dano, who sit down with Jeffrey Brown to discuss the “double natures” of their characters and the complex inspiration of playwright Shepard.
