Richard Glatzer, who wrote and directed Still Alice with his husband Wash Westmoreland, died March 10 in Los Angeles of complications from ALS, Deadline noted. Glatzer was 63.
Julianne Moore won the Best Actress Oscar last month for her role in the drama, about a linguistics professor who struggles with early-onset Alzheimer's.
Glatzer and Westmoreland also wrote and directed The Last Of Robin Hood ( 2013 ) and 2006's Quinceanera, which won the Audience Award and Grand Jury Prize at Sundance that year. Fewer than two weeks before the Academy Awards, Glatzer and Westmoreland sold a pitch to Jeff Robinov's Studio 8.
