Matt Shepard Is a Friend of Mine Official Trailer 1 (2015) - Documentary HD
On October 7, 1998, University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard was brutally beaten, tied to a fence and left to die because he was gay. Years later, Michele Josue, a close friend of Matt's, revisits the shocking case with never-before-seen photos and rare video footage, as Matt's all-too-brief life is remembered through the vivid testimonies of those whose lives he touched, from the friends and family who knew him best to the bartender who saw him on the night of the attack. New revelations emerge in one of the most notorious hate crimes in US history, leading to a searing, poignant, and multi-layered biographical and sociological portrait. In the end, the notion of forgiveness-embodied in the moving and courageous final act of Matt's parents-takes on truly heroic proportions.
I have never cried so much watching a Documentary, The way he died , what he went through that night is horrific, he seemed like such a great guy , such a good friend, so many people loved and adored him R.I.P angel you're still being remembered and you're still famous 💗 You and your family and friends have made a huge impact 💗💗💗
Look up Emmet Till
I know who that...
R u serious??? The young black kid from Chicago who was beaten tortured and killed is Mississippi in the 50's for whistling at a white women, a hate crime, this sounds very familiar, look it up on UA-cam
I SAID I KNOW WHO THAT IS SIR......
Ohhhhh 😆😆😆😆 my bad
How can ONE person hate this video?
Theyre homophobic.
twatism :)

I watched it today. Very sad but his parents are so dignified and have been doing some great work. Whatever a persons sexual orientation, religion or race everyone should be treated with respect. RIP Matthew.
God bless McKinney and Henderson ❤️❤️ One day I will also do what they did 😆👍🏾💯🔪
didnt he sell meth
The best part about this documentary is that it tells you about the really cool person behind this tragedy, which is the part most people think about when they hear his name- the hate crime itself, not Matt. The worst part... it will haunt you for days after you watch it. Maybe months. Maybe forever. Bring all the tissues.
Just like David Reimers Story.
Some things really are depressing
R.I.P Matthew shepherd
burn in hell Fred Phelps
amen to that
Kizzly Bear well said, I agree.
@@cassandramitch8793 oh the irony.
@@panem1562 irony of what
Cassandra Mitch *oh* *I know what he means*
His story has changed the way I live. Since I heard this story fresh in my teen years, I came out and I'm not afraid anymore. I chase the fear back into the shadows. I love you. Thank you. I'm sorry.
Never be afraid to be who you are. Be the best you that you can be. If others won't understand you or the way you are, then that is a loss on them. We can all be loving friends, but we all have to choose to be, even if we aren't the same, that is what makes life beautiful 💕
This documentary broke my heart into pieces. It's been 3 years since I watched it and I still get upset thinking about Matt, his friends, family, and the life that was cut short. I NEVER cry watching things but this had me sobbing. I don't think I can ever let Matt go, and I never even met him. Maybe someday I'll be able to watch it again, but I don't know if I'm ready yet.
it's a complete lie. he was a meth dealer, that's why he was killed
As a Christian, I have to say, not all people who call themselves Christians speak for Jesus Christ. Jesus brought a message of love toward God & loving each other, sometimes people who go to church miss that point. I remember the day Matt was murdered, I was a sophomore in college. I was so angry at McKinney & Henderson, I remember I wish I had been there to protect Matt. I know what the Bible says about homosexuality, but homosexual wasn't the only thing Matt was; he was a son, a brother, a friend & a child of God. I hope when I get to Heaven I will see Matt & I can tell him I wish I could have known you on Earth. Having had a relationship with God as a child, I know God was angry at the killers & He cried for Matt.
Very well said.
Amen my friend.
As someone who doesn't care, keep it to yourself christian.

Number 1: Christianity is supposed to be spread.
Number 2: As someone who doesn't care, why don't YOU KEEP YOUR COMMENTS TO YOURSELF, I never asked for your opinion. If you disagree with me - MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS, it probably took you more strength to write your comment than to have minded your own business. I see 36 thumbs up on my comment - THIS AIN'T YOUR HOME, MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
@@freudianslippers6567 Since you started this conversation, I gotta say your action of telling me to "keep to myself", is like me walking up to a complete stranger on the street & just because I disagree with him, I tell him to "keep it to yourself". You see how stupid that sounds? That's YOU, STUPID.
Watching this for the first time tonight. Matthew Shepard was a beautiful human being and an inspiration to many.
God bless McKinney and Henderson ❤️❤️ One day I will also do what they did 😆👍🏾💯🔪 Until then I can only dream 😆✅😉
i just watche this on Netflix and couldnt comment on it so i wanted to comment on here.
this is a heart warming yet horrifying documentary. i cried through most of it, to the film makers (if they ever see this comment) Thank you for making this film about Matt, i live in Australia and my sister is Gay and if anything like this happened to her id hope that id have rhe strength to go on like Matts family.
I am definitely going to see this for sure. My school did the Laramie Project and I was so moved by the show that I was sure that Matthew's spirit was with us every time we performed. Even though I never knew and probably never would know Matthew, I was honoured that we put his story out in my city, to make a statement. Matthew seemed like the kind of guy who I would love to be friends with and he had so much to give. Even though he's gone, his story is making a difference to everyone who hears it.
Just finished. My God how my heart hurts. Im emotionally drained from the past 90 min. The images, his parents' words, their personal videos... God rest his beautiful soul
This still very painful to think about.
Incredible loss to the family, and the planet.
McKinney and Henderson inspired me ✅🤣 God bless them.
@@classicepisodesofcrimewatc9971 it's funny how nobody gave you attention
This is a really sad story. I just can't believe that someone who is so evil, would do something like this to him. He doesn't deserve death at all. I hate how this happened to him. R.I.P. Matthew. We will miss you, and I hope that you loved your new home in heaven.
,Just watched the film again and I cry everytime.....
He was like so sweet and quiet... Just a great person, with a loving family and friends who loved him too....
I am not gay.... But WTF and WTH!!!!!!!
Slot of my friends are gay... They have helped me though a lot of hard times.... They are the most amazing group of people /friends....
Thank for this film.... I hope all whom sees it will remember forever as I have...
Thx to Ellen...
Mr. Clinton, Mr Obama...
Prayers to you all....
MATT... No one will ever forget you.....
This clip left me as heartbroken as though it was yesterday, and reminds me it is still every single day.
I'm sure this will be a heartbreaking film.
I havnt Seen before ..But added to my watch list . UK guy here . I don't know too.much about him and his story
Such a beautiful boy, such a tragic life. RIP dear Matthew, you are not forgotten
I just finished watching this. I am lost for words. What can I say. I feel like Matthew was my friend too. I would have loved to have met him, even just for one minute. To look him in the eye and to let him know that he was loved, even by strangers. Matthew, as i write this, tears are falling down my face and out of all the emotions I feel, I feel love. You are love. Your story has changed me and the way I think. I have never felt so close to someone that was so far away from me. But I want you to know that you are loved, you are a winner and an inspiration. Long live Matthew Shepard.
Idk if I can watch this id cry so much
@@classicepisodesofcrimewatc9971 blocked!
Whoever who Disliking the videos like this doesn’t have a heart! 😡
I never cry. I’ve never cried before about someone passing away, but I’ve watched this documentary crying from the beginning to the end.
I’m 20 years old right now and gay. In a way I feel so connected to Matt, and I care so deeply about him yet I was only 4 months old when he was attacked and murdered. My heart literally breaks for what happened to him. I will always keep wishing none of this happened to him.
I've been wanting to watch the documantary since it came out, but I just simply can't. I was the same age as Matthew and I remember it clearly when I heard about his murder and it broke my heart. I had no shoulder to cry on though, as I was in a very religious and homophobic envirement at that time. I can't imagine the pain and fear he must have gone through and I can't believe anyone could do that to another human being. Rest in peace, Matthew. I'm a friend of yours.
God bless McKinney and Henderson ❤️❤️ One day I will also do what they did 😆👍🏾💯🔪
I am speechless, my brain completely drained out and my heart ached so much after having watched this documentary tonight. This story isn’t only about a young gay being murdered, but as well his struggles in life as gay, his fight before and after he went in the coma... This gives me so much anger, la douleur dans l'âme (a pain in my soul) just to see how unfair life is. I despise the fact that people (homophobes) use religion to express their hatred toward the LGBT community, and I despise the fact that those same people, even preachers included, have the gut to call themselves Christians. De la crasse totale (total bullshit)!!! I was just a little boy when that happened, but I can’t feel the pain so deep in my bones... May you Rest In Peace Matt!! :’(
Matthew unknowingly saved many lives through his tragedy. Many families who kicked their children out on the streets, the families who "disowned" because of the feeling of shame and disappointment .... Realized they should love their children no matter the circumstances.
I don't claim or argue that my country is perfect ..... But its steps into the right direction.
It was definitely worth watching the documentary. Sadly though the lgbtq community are still risking their lives even today, just look at what happend quite recently in Orlando & we still have to continue fighting for our rights to live & breath.
RIP Matthew.
I just watched the documentary on Netflix. It was very touching. Matt had so many people who loved him from family and friends. He touched so many people's lives. I remember when this tragedy happened and was so shocked. At the time I lived in California and I was in high school. At the time it was like a trend to say you were gay or a lesbian, and everyone knew about half the people who said they were actually were not. As far as I knew, no one judged them, we just accepted them for who they were as a person.
It was so amazing to see how amazing and wonderful parents, his brother, and friends were to him when he was here on Earth and even now that he's gone. He is loved very deeply still and missed by so many who care about him even though his life was taken too soon.
I really agree with the priest's point of view. Just like there was way more to Matt than the world knew, there is more to his killers than what they did to Matt. Not that it justifies in any way what they did. They are people too. They have people who love and care about them as well. And we do have the right to be angry at them for their actions that took Matt's life.
It was so great to see that Matt had the opportunity to have such a fulfilling life the short time he was here, more so than the average young man. his parents I cannot even find the words to describe how amazing and gracious they are just find it in their hearts not to seek the death penalty after one of his killers, even though they are for the death penalty. And for Matt's mother and father to make changes through our legislation about hate crimes in Matt's legacy to remember Matt by is one of the most wonderful things they could have done. Matt's father couldn't have said it any better, Matt always wanted to be famous, just not in the way any of us wanted. How true is that for any parent.
I pray that one day everyone that knew Matt personally- family and friends- find a sense of peace and a way to forgive the two people who brought you so much heartache. And I know one day you will see your precious Matthew again on the streets of gold.
Remember this- hate the sin, not the sinner... and I know it's easier said than done... God bless you all and thank you for sharing your story 'Matt Shepard Is A Friend Of Mine'
This documentary should be free for everyone to watch. Truly heartbreaking :(
Happy Birthday Matthew!!. Should be turning 46. Yet, some ignorant people showed Hate! This shouldn't happen to anyone!
So much hatred in this world. Why can’t we just accept one another’s differences?
Don’t confuse accepting with agreeing.
he was a meth dealer. he was killed for being a meth dealer by other meth dealers. one of his killers was in a relationship with him, this whole narrative was a lie
RIP, Matthew. You'll always be remembered
RIP in hell 🔥☹️
@@debbieharry6785 why would you say something like that about anyone!!? Matthew did nothing wrong! You're nasty and you're the one who should RIP in hell!

Haven't seen it yet but looks like such a beautiful film, I hope Matthew is at peace now. Much love to his family and friends. x
I wanna watch this documentary...
I was in the US Army at Ft Story VA when the murder occurred. This case was so significant that it was discussed by leadership in the military at every level. We were briefed in formations about it. Looking back, I am guessing they didn't want a copy cat situation-which makes sense considering the military was still "dont ask dont tell" under former President Clinton.
Matthew Shepard was brutally murdered. Noah Presgrove was too. RIP brothers.
Rest in Peace and in Heaven Uncle Matt
💚💚💚💚💚 Heartbreaking!
I haven't even watched it and I'm already crying😢😢
oh I have to watch this in health tomorrow, we had to sign a paper to watch this, im getting prepared to cry
It's sad that we live in a world full of intolerance. No one deserves such death.
Ooh!
I must see this film.
Firstly I saw him in a Kids React To... video. Then I googled him. And then saw that there's actually going to be a documentary! Oh mine!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATHEW 🎂 47TH
So sad :(
So good
I would have loved to be a friend of his too RIP Matthew, you beautiful soul💖
I'm finally getting around to reading Stephen Jimenez's very interesting The Book of Matt, which examines the Shepard case. So far, I think he makes a very good case that there was a rush to judgment to attribute Shepard's murder to a targeted act, singling out a gay man. Sometimes we need simple answers to things and the news media doesn't help. It doesn't diminish anything from Mr. Shepard's life or self-worth, but it doesn't do any good to gloss over the factors that look like they contributed to his death.
Just think how many people have profited off of his murder, including his parents. Kinda makes you sick.
I’m sad just by watching the trailer
can someone tell me about his story? why he was murdered?
This breaks my heart.❤🌈😭

Watching Matthew's parents on OPRAH-WHERE ARE THEY NOW ? Heartbreaking.
i just got chills
Didn’t bill Clinton and later his wife before 2013 (if I remember correctly as it was long ago) campaign on the view that marriage should only be between a man and a woman. I may have remembered incorrectly so don’t throw hate at me if I am wrong just politely clear it up for me if I am incorrect or missed any details. Thanks
Did you find the answer?
He was at the wrong place wrong time. 😢
There is a play called "Laramie Project" that tells this story. So sad. smh
Where can I watch this?
What's the music in this?
Jamie Lynch the original sound is called „mirror in mirror” by Arvo pärt
humans can turn into brutal beasts
I will never understand people bearing placards saying someone who they do not agree with to be in hell...why? have they seen him in hell? such a cliché but who are we to judge? the more you judge, the deeper you dig your spot...in hell maybe.
I wished I never knew the graphic details
Did this come out this year?
ID Channel is AIRing Documentary on MONDAY Oct.9th
Simply RIP
Is there a song or beat name for this background sad piano noise?

Everyone can have their own opinion on being apart of LGBT but to have signs with you and yell such horrible things at someone is honestly a cruel thing and also a waste of your time like who wants to stand outside for hours yelling mean slurs at people because I do not have time for that so people if you do this please get a life
