Which film-making pair co-directed the 2006 movie Quinceañera?

The story behind the answer

Richard Glatzer and Wash Westmoreland co-directed the 2006 movie Quinceañera.

The two filmmakers also shared the writing credit for the film. Their collaboration produced a character-driven drama about Magdalena, a teenager preparing for her quinceañera in Los Angeles while navigating tensions within her family and community.

Quinceañera premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival and won both the Grand Jury Prize and Audience Award. Those honors made the film one of the notable independent releases connected with that year’s festival.

Glatzer and Westmoreland later became known for additional collaborations, including Still Alice, which Westmoreland co-directed with Glatzer. Quinceañera is sometimes attributed to only one director in casual references, but the film’s credited directing team consists of both Glatzer and Westmoreland.
