Alberto Lattuada (November 13, 1914 - July 3, 2005) was an Italian film director.

Lattuada was born in Milan, the son of composer Felice Lattuada. He was initially interested in literature, becoming, while still a student, a member of the editorial staff of antifascist fortnightly "Camminare..." (1932).

In 1940 he started his cinema career as scriptwriter and assistant director of Mario Soldati's Piccolo Mondo Antico. In 1943 he directed his first movie, Giacomo l'idealista.

Luci del Varietà (1950), co-directed with Federico Fellini, was the latter's first directorial endeavour.

He died at 91 years old for Alzheimer's disease.
