Quinceanera Directors Line Up a Pair of TV Projects
Directors Richard
Glatzer and Wash Westmoreland - whose partnership is both
personal and professional - scored a rare coup at the 2006 Sundance Film
Festival by winning both the jury prize and the audience award for their
comedy-drama Quinceanera, about a pregnant teen and her gay
cousin coming of age in L.A.'s principally Mexican-American Echo Park
neighborhood.
 Now
they've parlayed that success into two new projects for cable.
ABC Family has booked them to turn Quinceanera into a series,
while HBO has tapped Glatzer and Westmoreland for Sensational, a
dramatic feature film about Hollywood legend Errol Flynn's affair
with 15-year-old Beverly Aadland.
A scandal erupted when Flynn dropped dead at a party and Aadland's
mother went on trial for child abuse.
No word yet on when either project goes into production.
